I'm going to install a jib halyard tensioner and I don't have another e-27 around with one installed to pattern after.
I'm going to do a system that is different from the under deck ones and I need to know how much the halyard needs to move to get to max tension.
I know it will depend on how much you bring in the halyard in the first place. Assume a typically hurried raise prior to a leeward mark rounding with no winch involved & no backstay on.
4 inches? less? more?
Thanks
Bryan
