a foresail spinaker in light to moderate winds, unless you are out and out racing, and then when the helmsman starts screaming pop the kite, they wil know. a mizen spinaker, along with a main spinaker in light trade winds only. However do not try this trick in a race, it doesn't work, when they drop the mizen spinaker on the helmsman, this is experience speaking.

What Bob said, but also when you have good trained crew to deploy and recover it and a good helmsman who isn't going to cause you to broach. Otherwise, leave it in the sail bag.
