[quote=jonathan162][quote=waiex191]Also I would replace the carabiner clip with something that swivels. I would not hesitate to use a hardware store grade swivel. Actually, given the low loads that sail will generate, you could use a little pigtail of rope there. Tie a bowline around the bottom of the block, pull the rope through the loop on the crossbeam, and tie a stopper knot to attach it. That would let it swivel so you could pull the sheet in from either side.[/quote]
I'd be much quicker to recommend the bit of rope over any hardware-store-grade stuff that's going to rust. Or not be shiny.[/quote]
