I'm looking for the easiest way to connect my lower jib grommet to the deck. I have a hank on jib. Right now I have a twisted shackle on my deck flange and I undo the bolt on the twisted shackle and slide it thru the grommet on the foot of my jib. Is this the way it should be done? Is there a better way,,,something faster and easier?? I would love to here your suggestions and pictures. Thanks
