Hi all,
1975 Ericson 25 needs a a new jib halyard. Here's the question: The halyard is 3/16 wire to 5/16 rope. Is there any reason to not just make the whole length of halyard out of 5/16 AM steel rope or equivalent? The sheeves atop the mast seem to have enough space to "hold" a sheet this size.
thanks!
