Great question, Bill. I've just made up new uppers (with StayLock terminals). Our spreaders were held in place by nothing except the tape around a leather spreader boot. Is that normal? I've heard/read that you are supposed to "tap" the spreaders up or down till you get them so the bisect the angle. Any more specific instructions would be appreciated before I again climb the mast. BTW, the "Mast Mate" steps that came with our boat are easy and Very Secure feeling to someone who no longer likes heights.
