[quote=klozhald]Mark,
If the longer pigtail has the ring on it, it is for your jib.
Here's a picture:

The jib halyard comes up through the ring and leaves back down through it also.
The forestay attaches to the longer pigtail as well.
There is a hook on the top of the jib, and you rig it so that the open part of the hook faces the bottom part of the ring. As you hoist the jib, the hook catches on the ring and you now have all metal contact between the top of the jib and the mast.<!-- editby --><em>Edited by klozhald on May 28, 2019 - 01:37 PM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
