I plan to replace my Commander's Jib Stay. The published dimension is 31' -5 3/4".
Is that dimension center to center of eyelet holes (so excluding the turnbuckle's variable length)?
Or, does the determination of eye-to-eye length need to subtract a mid-turnbuckle length for fabrication?
My plan is to order one to length, use the jib halyard for stability while hoisting a sailor to the top to replace the existing (fraying). Boat is in the water at a dock slip. All advice is welcome!
Thanks, David
