I don't know how the 40 is rigged but take a look at your mizzen masthead fitting. On my 32 there is a tang that is forward and points up to be used for the triatic stay and then there is one below that that will be used to attach a block for the staysail halyard. I'm guessing on yours but that is how my 32 is set up.

I just looked at my mizzen mast hanging on the wall in my shop and it is rigged as Steve described.

I certainly do have a tang off the forward part of the mizzen. I will rig that with a block and with the information from Lawrence I should be able to use my very colorful and cooling looking stays'l. Thanks for all the help, I am still trying to find the time to post a bunch of new pics of Tivoli, hopefully I can include one of the stays'l flying as well.

Again Thanks...
