Steps
-
If you own a furling jib instead of a hoisting jib install your forestay as follows:
-
1. Make sure the stainless steel jib halyard feeds through the top block.
-
2. Attach the 4mm line to one side of the stainless steel halyard.
-
3. Connect the shackle to the other end of the stainless steel halyard.
-
4. Knot the 3mm line to the loose end of the 4mm line. This is your hoisting mouse line.
-
5. You can temporarily tie away the loose end of the 3mm line to the shackle.
