(Showoff.)
He lands just above the stay, sandaled feet braced against the mast and one hand twined in the tangle of rigging. The jib sail's gone, the stay cracked and the other sails twisted into a knot. Mercer hops another foot higher before easing a tentative foot onto the stay to test it.
Satisfied it'll hold his weight even in its poor condition, he lets go and calls down to Jack, "You want all this to come down?"
