Using a Y spreader on mizzen lowers

[Brion Toss]

Hello,
While it is technically possible to create deck space by putting spreaders on the lower shrouds, it would be difficult. You would need long, sharply-angled spreaders, and you would need tangs that were likewise sharply angled, pulling sideways on a bolt and a mast that were not engineered for the pull. Among other problems. the bend in the wire is another issue entirely.
Do you have pictures you could post of the current setup? A configuration change might be available.
Fair leads,
Brion Toss
