The last attempt by the local rigger looks good, but he used a top swage eye terminal slightly heftier than the original, and it won't fit into the fork of the masthead fitting far enough to allow insertion of the pin. The Devil is in the details, indeed. Duplicate means duplicate, not approximate. There are plenty of good riggers in Florida, but I managed to pick one of the others.
Keep singing the praises of your local sail shop, as you want them to stay in business!
