Finally, finally got a flag halyard.... Tied ladder to the mast ( two lines ) climbing chair on my friend and on him the Jib halyard, leading to a clutch and main halyard leading to a clutch.
Tap the stay with a drill, ( lanyard on the drill ) duck taped a rivet into the rivet gun with the strap on it with the block. Insert into the hole, and pull away,
Adjust strap on the spreader and drill the second hole, and add rivet.
Lanyard on the rivet gun.
Run flag halyard line and back down the ladder.....
Block at bottom. Line to deck that I can tie to tighten.
up with the martini flag...

You tapped the spreader not the stay, right? We've been meaning to install our's forever. Hopefully when we get back from our vacation in the next two weeks we can get our's up.
