Just want to make sure I have these installed right... Can someone confirm the travel release pin goes outboard? Upgraded these to among other things ease the pain of releasing the sheet.

That is correct, If you later decide to hook up a jib traveler kit, you would want the lock pins to the outside also. |

Instead of a bowline knot, you may want to just run the end of the jib sheet through the lo-profile jib traveler's eye strap and then tie a figure 8 knot on the eye strap's backside. This will allow you to pull your jib's clew plate further down. |

Thanks for the tip on the figure 8 stopper. Will change before I launch today. |
