On most boats it is important to have the head of the mainsail as close to the top of the mast as possible. Furthermore it must also be quick to attach and disconnect the main halyard, even with cold and wet fingers. So a shackle or a bowline are not the best solutions. The best is the method is the one shown in this video. The bobble is nice, but not strictly necessary. A double figure of 8 knot (figure of 16?) will do. The bobble or knot is never removed so you cannot lose the halyard through the mast. I usually shorten the main halyard a few cm/in at the start of each season to move the wear spots.

Another rigging failure. I’m done guessing with this. I’ll motor to Maple Bay, BC to clean a boat or two for cash. Then I’ll try motoring back to Shelter Island to meet up with a new friend who happens to be a rigging expert. He’s offered to help for a couple days to see if we can straighten this out.
