I am trying to find the diameter of the forestay pin on a 23'5 Hunter. The info is needed to order a Schaefer Furler. I ahve the wire size ( 5/16th) and the fore stay length ( 27'4 1/2" ) but have been unable to find the pin diameter.

Forstay shackle instead of pin

Has anyone replaced the pin used to hold the forestay with a shackle. I find the pin to be a pain to use when I'm raising the mast on my 240. I thought a shackle would be much easier to use. Any problems with doing that? Thanks Tony

Shackles, definitely

I use a shackle on the fore stay and back stays on my H23. The shackles on the back stays give me the attachments for the back stay adjuster. Greg H23 Faster-
