I just got done building muy first 12 and have been working
on rigging it. I am having a problem with the jib swivel line
bowsie won't stay tight when i tension the backtay.
I have tried different types of lines and size bowsies but it allways seems to slip.My question is if I have my jib boom at 2"
above the deck and trimmed perpidicular to the deck does the swivel need to be adjustable? Or could I make it a fixed connection?
Thanks in advance for input.
