Now step the mast, following the instructions in Section 3.4 - Stepping the Mast.

with the pin in the third hole down on the shroud adjuster plate.

The mast on the RS Feva is supported at deck level by the mast gate and the
foredeck. The shrouds are tted to stop the mast from bending when tension is
applied to the jib halyard, hence making the jib work better. Therefore, changing
the shroud adjuster hole position will affect the amount that the mast bends
when tension is applied to the jib halyard.
