above the shrouds and taken through the main stay loop. It is
seized to the main stay over the main hatch with a 1/8” single
block at its end. The runner (.018 Tan) has a hook seized to its
end which is hooked forward of the 5-hole deadeye on the stay
collar (see the photo below). Reeve it through the pendant block
