Hi all,
Just had my mast raised and surprise! The upper swivel that the halyard shackle would attach to is all the way up. Any suggestions on how to get it down? The halyard runs within the mast. I have shaken the foil, given as much slack as possible to the halyard, but, no dice. I have given thought to running my main halyard up the foil on some type of ring to snag the upper swivel or it's halyard shackle, but, I really don't know what would work to snag it enough to pull it down. Any and all suggestions would be appreciated. I will even put up with the normal amount of "You shoulda, coulda, woulda" comments. Yes, feeling kind of stupid. Thanks
