I just replaced my mainsheet on my DS2. I bought the 44' length shown in the rigging measurements (on this site) before I pulled the old mainsheet off the boat. After I removed the old mainsheet I measured it and it was 30' long. So I am going to cut down the new mainsheet to match the 30' length. The way I look at it, it's easier to cut the line shorter, than to try to get it to grow longer.
Any other DS2 folks that can verify the correct length of the mainsheet for a DS2?
