The upper section of the roller furling forestay is beginning to unwind
I need to remove about 2 inches of it also since to get the rig tight it has to be in the lowest hole
I would like a turnbuckle there to replace it, but I can't find a turnbuckle with exactly the ends I want. I want one end to fit in the upper furler swivel 1/4" thick with 1/4" hole, and one end with large loop to fit on the shackle on the mast with the other stay's. Total length between 7.5 to 9 inches the current one is 9 and 5/8.
Has anyone replaces it with this setup, it seems like I will have much better adjustability
Thanks,
Ernie
