Bram,
For those of us that are using the latest Jib Downhaul Setup with the NY 
Skiff's Carbon Bow Fitting, we may have the original eyestrap for the old Jib 
Downhaul Setup mounted just starboard of the mast step.  Will this eyestrap, 
with 
a couple of swivel blocks, work in place of the new bevel block with two cheek 
blocks setup detailed in your New Adjustable Forestay PDF?  See photo below.

Also, I have the 3/16" Precourt Systems Synthetic Rigging Fittings for the 
forestay.  Would these work in place of the Harken Becket Blocks and sheaves, 
in 
terms of purchase and adjustability from the new cleats, while underway?
