We installed lazy jacks on Peregrine two seasons ago, purchased
through (and made by) our local rigging shop in Toronto ("The Rigging
Shop;" helpful, knowledgeable, friendly folk, if not terribly
creative in naming the place...).
However, we did the installation while the mast (and boat) were on
the hard for the winter; never tried with the stick up... Installing
with the mast down was fairly straightforward (with the instructions
provided with the jack system).
They're worth their weight in gold, especially when single-handing.
(Although as first mate, I have to say that I deeply appreciate not
being buried in the mainsail every time we drop it!)
