Reefing hook

Postby Shagbark » Sat Mar 25, 2017 2:22 pm

I got the reefing hook from DR Marine and can't figure out how it attaches to the gooseneck! Does anyone have any pictures of their attached DR Marine reef hook or walk me through the process?

It does help - thanks! But brings up another question; what's the purpose of the pin?

Shagbark,
I don't use it as I use the pin on the boom end for my tack cringle. If I didn't have that, I would use it to pin the tack of the main.
