[C320-list] Retrieve Reefing Line from Boom

[Jeff Hare]

Pretty simple actually.  Pull it all the way through. Borrow or buy an
electricians fish tape from home depot for ~$12, feed it in one end tape the
line to it and pull it back through.  It's happened to me with helpers the
same way.  It's no big deal, you'll see.

Now, if you're talking about the outhaul which may have an internal block &
tackle, that's much harder.

I am hoping someone can help me.  Last fall when my wife and I were
preparing to haul our 320 for the first time, she pulled on the Reefing line
and the end went into the boom.  Has anyone ever had to retrieve the line
from the boom and if so, any suggestions on how I can do this?
