Double yeah! And the ones they wanted to sell me had a spring on the bottom that made it stand up straight.
It swiveled too. It had a bottom part that you bolted to the deck. Very cool but too expensive and strong for
on a little jib like mine. And, it looked like the sheets could get tangled on it. The little plastic fair leads are
smooth and the sheets can't get hung up....
