[quote=jimshepp1]I noticed that on some of the videos I found with the NACRA jib ring hook system only one of halyard lines (the one tied to the hook) is through the ring and the other end is not in the ring. In some NACRA manuals they say to run both ends through the ring. I think with my prior halyard I only ran one side through the ring but this year I tried to build a continuous halyard where I did run both ends through the ring and I've had little success...the hook is hard to seat and has also come off the ring under sail (I think when the forestay loses tension). Best practices? I'm ready to ditch the continuous line and go back to a regular (?) halyard, maybe with sister clips to detach the slack end when it's up and only run 1 side of the line through the upper ring...[/quote]
