Storm jib on a baby stay?

[William_H]

In oz the ABC had a really good documentary called "I was actually there" relating to Sydney to Hobart yacht race 1998. I don't know if my friends in UK can access it but here is a link I Was Actually There: S2 Fairlie Arrow Abduction Hoax. (move along to the next show of the series) Might give you some good ideas on storm sails or put you off sailing for ever ol'will

Thanks for that, that is super helpful. Every picture tells at thousand words and all.that.

You might try the westerly owners Association as I am sure somebody there has details of how the deck fitting is installed including the reinforcement of the deck.
