Where do you fly tis sail? off the forestay like a wire luffed assym?

Was set flying, tacked inside the headstay, halyard was about the
height of the (pole) topping lift. Yes, wire luff, cut full. I carry
one on my boat but rarely use it.

I have one. It is labelled as a free flying staysail and is tacked down to
an eye which is on a track on the foredeck. But the halyard is just where
you said.
I 'think' it sheets to the inner one of the two tracks I have on the side
deck-the genoa goes to the outer one.
I must try it out next year.
Need to experiment to find the right position of the eye on its track as
well.
This was one of many sails that came with my boat but I have never used it
yet.
