Hi all,
Posting my first question to the board after reading for the last year. A great resource and I thank you all!
I'm still not brave enough to attempt stepping the mast by myself so I have my first mate handle the duty
of connecting the fore stay to the deck fitting. She really struggles holding onto the forestay while trying
to get the wire loop into the tiny hole of the pin.
She really likes this "safety pin" I found at Menards; much easier to handle with one hand.
I'm just not sure how safe it really is.
Has anyone had experience using this type of pin?
Any other suggestions for alternatives?
Thanks,
Bill
