Hey Randy,
I think that's a great idea. How do you attach the halyard shackle to the
loop?
Thanks,

Brian,
Our 1988 M15 and M17 both came rigged with Jib halyards and downhauls lead
back to the cockpit. On both boats I replaced the individual jib halyard
and downhaul lines with a single line, in effect making a big loop of both
lines . As you raise or lower the jib the single line feeds in-and-out of
the cockpit, leaving nothing to coil or stow.
