Post subject:  Double trapeze

I have 4 trapeze wires, separate not the ones that have 2 wires on 1 thimble. My boat is older, 79 so it has one hole on the mast for the shackle. Can I use a larger shackle to hold all 4 wires?

You don't need to.

Put two thimbles on the shackle pin, on either side of the tang. Put the other two on the bow of the shackle with the shrouds and the forestay.
