A good source for rigging info is www.starboardpassage.com
The new assembly guide has these instructions on page 11 -
Attaching the Main Halyard: Standard and Pro
The main halyard is secured to the upper boom with a clove hitch. It is suggested that you place three wraps of electrical tape around the upper booms between the ninth and tenth sail ring (counting from the tack of the sail upward). The tape helps keep the halyard from slipping up to the next sail ring or sail tie.
Note: Tying the halyard between the 9th and 10th sail ring is only a suggestion for the halyard location. You can play with the location of the halyard to raise or lower the boom depending on your comfort or wind strength. It is highly suggested not to tie the halyard up much farther; raising the boom too far off the deck may cause the mast to bend. For further information on tuning your Sunfish visit the class association at www.sunfishclass.org.
