Anyone here have a clue as to how to set tension on the side shrouds?  The leeward shroud will flop around a bit.  I have searched and cannot find anything that gives a spec or procedure.  Any guidance accepted.  Thanks.  Sail On,  Al

Searching for "loose shrouds" on the whole forum I get 4 pages of hits. I'll let you wade through it!
