quick fix

Well, for now I've decided to shackle a block to the existing hole in the toerail and just tie off to the mooring cleat. I may add a dedicated cleat later. Does the jib furling line really have that much resistance that it needs a cleat and not a cam? I looked at the J105s in the harbor and they have the line on the coach roof through a cam and into a sheet bag. no cleat involved.
