HOW TO DEFINE YOUR
FLAG HALYARD LENGTH


* At the (aft) lower diagonal schroud,
 set the positioning hitch to center your
 halyard (without flag) between the
 mast and the cap shroud (see picture).
 This way you prevent the flag from hitting
 the shroud or mast and wearing it out,
 plus making an annoying sound
 when you are below.
 



* Set the Button cleat not less than
20 cm. below the hitch.


* Finally adjust your halyard length to
 make it fit around the Button Shroud Cleat
as shown on the picture below.

No matter how many flags you fly, the adjustable
button shroud cleat adapts easily
to the varying length of your halyard.

* Tips:
Practice assembling of the button cleat at a table.
Place a towel on deck while mounting it to the shroud.
This way you reduce the risk that if something
accidentally falls, it will bounce on deck
and fall overboard.
Take your time, you only have to do it once.

Use braided polyester halyard rope.

Preferably 3 mm (1/8”) .

Maintenance: Rinse with fresh water.
