53. Thread the sheet ends through the ratchet blocks,
observing the arrow on the blocks to make sure that the
ratchet is working in the correct direction
54. Tie the sheet ends together eg using a fishermans knot.
Note: You can tie the sheet ends to the clew if you want but I
prefer this method. There are also other options for this.
55. Make sure you have run the kite sheets on top of other
ropes and behind the mainsheet.
56. Tie the head to the kite halyard.
57. Un-tie the downhaul from the forestay eye (remember
step 49) thread it through the ring on the kite. Make sure you
are under the kite sheets
58. Tie the downhaul to the upper patch on the kite.
