Reply to: Jibstay Pigtail Replacement

[quote=P.M.]You can just swag a wire pigtail just below the existing thimble swag. Or . . . In the past I have added a shackle to the forestay thimble and to that attached a pigtail. No issues as the loads on the jib downhaul is not enough to damage the forestay thimble. Or . . . If you have a solid thimble do what I have in the link. If you don't have a solid thimble, add a second thimble inside of the forestay thimble and splice a Dyneema pigtail to that (not wire). You can find the details in my album: [url]https://www.thebeachcats.com/pictures?g2_itemId=131810&g2_GALLERYSID=9251c7bc394aa4314a9457362dd7cc13[/url] [img]https://www.thebeachcats.com/gallery2/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=131812&g2_serialNumber=4&g2_GALLERYSID=5e264b0d0436451e31d00ca1c4424038[/img][/quote]
