[Rhodes22-list] Question about forward lower shrouds

[James Barron]

We hope to get some adivce about something we just noticed:

Our port connection for the forward lower shroud seems normal, but the 
starboard side looks like it has pulled up.  Is that possible?   If it has 
pulled up, how is it repaired?

We think that a recent storm had tangled the jib furling line with the port 
upper stay and pulled it out of the spreader. Can't even figure out how 
that happened.  We got that temporarily fixed, but need a new fitting for 
the end of the spreader, too. So it's possible there was some unusual 
strain on the starboard shrouds and fittings

Thanks in advance
Jim Barron
