You could loop the lift around the boom, with a strap eye on the bottom of the boom to keep it from sliding forward. This would eliminate twisting. -----Original Message----- From: Lawrence Winiarski via montgomery_boats Sent: Monday, April 29, 2019 2:36 PM To: For and About Montgomery Sailboats Subject: M_Boats: Topping lift fitting I've been adjusting my topping lift with a tautline hitch. Any ideas of a little fitting or arrangement that might make it easier to adjust? (and not twist the boom) Mostly I just want to get the boom lifted higher occasionally when rowing or putting up a boom tarp. Curious what others might have figured out. I've seen big boats with a block on the line.
