Single soft shackle works great on my 38MKIIC……….They are relatively easy to make yourself, just google soft shackle and watch the video……….

Touche' has forward lower shrouds. It's like having two baby stays. Touche's jibsheet bowlines hung up on each of the forward lower shrouds on each tack. I ordered new 3/8 VPC jibsheets with eyes in each end from apsltd.com. To attach the sheets to the sail, I used soft shackles, one on each eye. Problem solved! Our first tack with the new system was amazing. The sails flew through the foretriangle with little to no delay or hanging up. Highly recommend the upgrade to soft shackles. Dennis C.
