Ahoy Denise,
I would suggest EZ Jacks instead. These are
Lazy Jacks that can be stowed at the mast and completely out of the way. You would hardly even notice them when stowed. No problem with them catching the battens when hoisting the main in any heading.
I built mine for about $80.00 for everything.
Fair Winds,
Cap'n Dave
I sail therefore I ARRRRRRRRrrrrrr!
