That looks like the old luff foil, which had several crimps in it.
What I have now is nothing.
More halyards are better... you might lose one.
Up to a point. It's difficult and it weakens the mast to add internal
halyards, plus there are limited options on where to lead them.
Couldn't the lower spin halyard be used as a jib halyard in a pinch?
