[Public-List] Baby Stay Mast Connection ?

[C Spalding]

Spring is almost here and time to look at mast projects
Installing a baby stay and inquiring as to the distance above the spreaders to install the connection
Will use a 3/8 inch through bolted tang 
Deck connection will be at the anchor locker bulkhead which has been bulked up with 2 layers of 1/4 inch ply each glassed to the underside crown of the deck with 2 knees glassed to the anchor bulkhead and installed ply
will use a pelican hook and turnbuckle 

-- don't want to install too far above the spreaders as I do not want to add backstay shrouds

If anyone has acomplished this before their experience would be appreciated

Thanks
