[Rhodes22-list] Jib Top Loop Breaks Again alternative fix

[Tootle]

Bill:

I had upper break and and had it fixed.  While putting it back on sleeve,
the lower broke.  The Rummy fix was to use a pan head screw thru the wide
part of the cloth right after it was in the groove into the tube.  Might
even be better that those cloth loops.

The canvas loop at the top of my jib broke again.

I have a local sailmaker who can replace it, again.

Are there any other solutions that have worked better?
