      Very strange… let’s try again…

      Imagine if you will putting all of the blocks and padeyes from your boat
      in a big box for four years and then remembering exactly how each was
      mounted while also replacing a bunch of them with new Garhauer
      hardware…. I just didn’t take enough pictures first. Now I could
      use some advice or pictures on how folks rigged their mizzen sheet near
      the gooseneck. Our Bimini is high and the sheet needs to run tighter
      in that turn to keep from rubbing holes in the front edge of the Bimini
      fabric. Suggestions and pictures greatly appreciated.

      I think most of us have put the sheet to the stern rail.

      Pardon the brevity. I’m typing this on my phone and I hate typing on my
      phone.

      Same here, sheet tackle on the stern rail:
      http://www.svsarah.com/Sarah/ewUpgradeDeckRig.htm#Running_Rigging_-_Mizzen_Mast

      Actually I have two sets of sheet tackle on the mizzen. When sailing down
      wind I move the one tackle to the running backstay padeye, which gives me
      an effective vang on the boom. I use the other tackle to control the boom
      while I’m moving the other one.

      Alan, what to you use to turn the mizzen staysail sheet near the
      gooseneck so you have the least interference with Bimini? Do you leave
      the mizzen staysail sheet rigged on the boom when not using the staysail?

      Thanks,

      Pete
