Must add that the quick pin with the button failed on my genny. I was
fortunate in that I check the pins before casting off. Noticed that the pin
was bent. I decided to remove it to examine what had happened. Apparently
the compression of the forestay on the pin crushed it. I would never use
these again other than as a quick set until I put in a proper clevis, but
never for sailing.
