5.5 - Hoisting the Jib
a) b)
c)
Shackle the jib halyard to the
head of the jib.
Hank the luff of the jib onto the forestay.
Hoist the jib by pulling on the line which comes out of the starboard side of the
mast, just below the level of the gooseneck.
When the jib is almost fully hoist, a rope loop will emerge from the hole in the
mast.
Hook the snap shackle on the block (added in step 4.9b) onto this rope loop and
continue to hoist the jib.
