Then position the jib and the halyard line against the forestay.

Raise the mast and fasten the
forestay into the furler mounted stay
adjuster with the clevis pin and split ring.
Attach the trapeze shock cords, lines, rope locks
and handles if you have fitted the second trapeze kit.

Hoisting the jib
Unfold the jib and open the zipper on
the luff. Use the 4 mm bow shackle to
connect the jib tack to the furler moun-
ted stay adjuster.
Shackle the jib head to the jib halyard.
Close the top of the zipper ensuring that the
halyard line and the forestay remain inside the zipper.
As you pull down on the halyard line,
close the zipper as the sail is raised.

Once the jib is fully raised, take the jib luff
tensioner line and secure it to the bottom
of the stay adjuster.
Now pass the line through the small block at the
end of the jib halyard, then back down through
the cleat on the jib tack. Remove the jib halyard
line and stow it in a secure place.
NB : Ensure that the rig is tensioned before
you tension the luff on the jib. The jib
halyard is designed to tension the luff of
the jib - not to support the mast.
