There is a discussion and installation example in the technical notes on the owners site. You should install running back stays to take up the rig tension when the inner forestay is in place.

  I am thinking about installing a inner forestay, maybe with a release lever, on Sundancer. This way I can put up heavy weather sails when I have to roll up my jib. I have seen some of the sails you can wrap on over a  jib but I am not impressed with time it takes to attach them. My big concern would be the effect on my aft stay, which is hydraulic, and balancing the standing rigging.
Any thoughts on this?
