[quote=mattson][quote=MN3]I drilled 2 holes in the sidewalls of the track of my 5.5
in a spot that will not interfere with the bolt rope
2 small holes so i can thread the dyneema bail into the track and back out the track on each side. small stopper knot to secure it
my 6.0 was set up with only 1 small hole drilled in each side. this method leaves the single knot outside the mast and the knot will slide around with the block.
both methods work and has really not (Knot) been a problem[/quote]
Sorry to bug....
Is the spinnaker head only supported by the bail? Or is there a leader line run above it. I ask after seeing this post at catsailor:

I will have a block on the bail to prevent the chafe shown in the photo. This rig looks like there is a heavier line run up the mast to take some load. Not sure I would need this if the bail is amsteel.[/quote]
