[Rhodes22-list] More Dumb Questions.

[Bob Weber]

Hi all,  I had my main sail reconditioned this winter.  They added 2 reef 
points and a full Batten at the top.  My next job is to add a J hook to 
attach the tack of the main when reefed.  My question is for others with 
standard main w/ reefs, Where did you attach the hook (Boom or Mast).  Did 
you rivit it?  I would use aluminum rivits do I need an aluminum Hook as 
well? One last Question since I am on a role.  Anyone with a full batten, 
does you sail stick while hoisting and dropping? Mine gets hung up the cars 
above and below the batten jam and it is unexceptable.  Sailcare did not add 
a batten car in front of the batten which is needed, I guess, whether I can 
add it now remains uncertine.  Thanks in advance.
