Worth it for the ease of reefing in 2.5 to 3-foot chop at Mohave !!!
That Hook & Ring, has "GOT" to GO.

That thing will Really hold all that pressure on the Halyard ?

Only other Cheap solution i can think of is to place a pulley
at the head of the sail then run the halyard through it and
secure it to the top of the mast. YEA the halyard is now twice
as long, but it can now be 1/2 the tensile strength.
Maybe use an electric winch ?
