Measure the mainsail luff then add a bit for the distance between the foot of the sail and the mast foot.

That sort of advice is typical of this forum sometimes. A guy comes along with a perfectly simple question and you take the micky with a ridiculous and over complicated suggestion like "measure the mainsail luff". Anyone with any experience knows that Fireball's seagull and air rifle system is the tried and tested way of doing the job.
