Hi
Main Sails on slugs in all boats I know off do not always come down perfectly.
One possible solution (if you are single handed) is to fit a line opposite to the halyard from the cockpit to the mast foot and up to the sail V tying it to the same point of the halyard.

Re: Neat adjustable Lazy Jack lines
Hi

A stack pack is very high on my "wish list"
