My jib got stuck like that. It was fouled at the top. The end of the cable looked like a pig's curly tail. I had to send someone up the bosuns chair to untangle it.

Can you see what the deal is up there with binoculars?

I have been using the same main halyard for the last three years. Every winter I connect a line to it and pull it up and store the main halyard in the mast over the winter. I went to bring it down it does not want to come down. I am able to pull it down 6" and pull it back up 6". so it does move. all the other halyards i have loosened to make sure it was not hanging up on them. I am still unable to pull the main halyard down. Has anyone ever run into this and does anyone have a suggestion or solution in mind?
