Hi again,
It is all about the moments of inertia of the new and old mast, the vessel righting moments, the rig configuration, and how you want to deal with the pull of the forestay, and the shape of the mast. You don't just add jumpers because you think it might be good to. Or rather you shouldn't; people do.
Fair leads,
Brion Toss
