Insert the gooseneck into the mast track. Tie the
down haul line onto the ring and lead it through the
cleat and ring as shown to provide multi-purchase
leverage. Apply desired downhaul tension and cleat
the line. Notes: (a) Do not re-insert the sail into the
mast track below the track opening; (b) On a new
boat, it is sometimes easier to adjust downhaul with
the mainsheet system installed and sheeted in. Keep
an eye on the wind.
