If/When I have to do it again, that is what I would do. But since I have not done it and sailed with
it I cannot tell you if it works. I do know that I am having a hard time reaching the control lines
behind the shrouds and getting a good pull on them.


Rigging is one of those things that has a certain amount of personal preference. You need
to try and imagine how you will sail the boat and what layout makes it easy.

Christian,
