[quote=Edchris177][quote] I may also have to move the jib sheet blocks, but no worry, easy to do. [/quote]
Most 5.0 have the jib blocks fixed to a pad eye on hull, the 5.7 came with tracks to slide the jib blocks fore/aft.
I don't know if there is some sort of backing plate for the 2 rivets that hold the padeye. I would at least want a washer on the inside, & perhaps a few more layers of wetted fabric.
Pulling a larger jib, only supported by 2 small rivets seems likely to fail.[/quote]
