		Since pulling on these lines is to complement the release of the bowlines, it would seem that the spread sail is being brought in closer to the mast with the aid of horizontal or vertical brails.
		Although the Irish tales, whose written form reflects twelfth-century linguistic use, certainly attest to the transfer of naval construction principles from the Norse to the Irish, they do not further illuminate the matters of mast, sail, and rigging.
		For the Irish term beirling and its identification as a loan from a Norse term reflected in the attested berlings ss, the ground beam for a tilt or ship's tent, see Sayers (Forthcoming).

		(from Irish J/24 Newsletter, November 1998) Peter Gray's launching instructions for the Westerns (1998) declared that Michael Clarke has a contraption, and, sure enough this contraption was used to lower all the masts as visiting boats lifted out.
		With care to keep dangling lines clear and so forth, it is a surprisingly easy job for one person to raise or lower a J/24 mast and is perhaps best done ashore for steadiness.
		The key dimension is that the 3:1 block be 20 to 21 feet off the deck, so that when chock-a-block the mast foot just emerges from its deck hole.

		It did occur to me when I was grieving the loss of knots and knot know-how aboard, and in our lives in general, that the comment about the jib clew was debatable.
		I’m not sure that it was much of an improvement when we replaced those very clunky bowlines in the jibsheets with the snapshackles that we use these days.
