I'm anticipating the hard part will be getting the tack connected to the ATN Tacker under load before the jibe (which I haven't tried yet). The issue will be how close I can get the tack to the Tacker shackle by manipulating the pole. I'm thinking if we raise the mast end, this will bring the other end back to the forestay. The Tacker can be freely adjusted up and down. Reattaching the tack from the Tacker to the pole should be the easy part as I'll be using a guy that is not under load (at first), and the shackle on my Tacker is a Tylaska.

All clear now. I think the hard part will be getting back from Tacker to pole under load after the gybe, but assuming the tack goes to a winch will work just fine.
