b'PLUG-FIDSNew plug fids allow for remote release of trigger shackles. The fid is pushed into the trigger hole and the tapered rear of the fid allows the trigger to snap closed again and hold the fid in place. A lanyard can then be placed in either of twolocations depending upon the desired location of remote release. For side release,the lanyard is attached to the blunt end and can be pulled out either by hand or bywinch. For rear release, the lanyard is attached to the tapered end and pulled frombehind. The fid pries upon the trigger and stays captive with the shackle. Can alsobe used with no lanyard and operated as a handle for convenient release. The plug fid is ideal for avoiding the need to crawl out into risky locations or for single-handed or night sailing.OPTION ONE OPTION TWOPull to release remotelyPull to release remotelyfrom the side from behindT20T12T8As the plug fid is pulled, the taper Trigger is pried open,pries the trigger open.
