o 1 x jib sheet
o 1 x jib halyard block tie
Before stepping the mast you will need to:
1) Hook the eyelets at the end of the shrouds onto the shroud shackle.
2) Attach the shroud shackle to the lower of the two metal rings on the front face of
the mast (see picture 4.24).
3) Tie a figure-of-eight knot in one end of the jib halyard block tie.
4) Thread the other end of the jib halyard block tie through the metal loop at the top
of the jib halyard block, pulling the excess through until the block is next to the
knot.
5) Thread the free end of the jib halyard block tie through the shroud shackle, in
between the shrouds.
6) Thread the end of the jib halyard block tie back through the metal loop at the top
of the jib halyard block, passing through in the opposite direction to step 4.
7) Tie a figure-of-eight knot in the end of the jib halyard block tie. The jib halyard
block will now hang just below the lower of the two metal rings on the front face of
the mast (see picture 4.25).
8) Thread the jib halyard through the jib halyard block, and make sure that both ends
of the jib halyard are secure at the bottom of the mast.
