    E32 Mainsheet Refit, 4:1 or 5:1? or...

    My 1985 Ericson 32-3 has a 3:1 mainsheet which runs under the boom and down/back through the deck organizer to a winch on the starboard cabintop -- pretty standard I think. I'm interested in converting this into a 4:1 or 5:1. Thanks to @gfilipi, who directed me to Harken's mainsheet system...

    E30+ mainsheet system upgrade...

    Hello All, I'm thinking about buying a new mainsheet system for my Ericson 30+. The old (possibly original) mainsheet system is an old, pretty beat up Schaefer fiddle block with becket and cam with (2) single blocks on the boom. The (2) bails are about 3'-4' forward of the the end boom. In...

    Foot blocks or snatch blocks?

    I will be flying an asymmetrical spinnaker or cruising chute on my E29, and need advice on the best method of turning spinnaker sheets back to the winches from as far aft as possible. I dont think genoa blocks are the right solution. Garhauer is recommending foot blocks that can handle at least...

    Source for these blocks ?

    Maybe "block" isn't the right word for them ? Anyway, on the port side they are stacked two high, one for the jib/genoa and the other for the furling line. On the starboard side it is just one high and just has the genoa sheet. I am thinking of adding a second one on the starboard side...

    Really small upright blocks?

    Hi all, background: when we purchased our E32-3 it had small blocks mounted on spreaders to run lines for the radar reflector, cortesy flags, etc. Then life (read - baby) happened while the mast was repainted, and somehow in that process of repainting those blocks were not put back on...

    garhauer cars, blocks, tracks and vangs

    On the never ending list of things to do with my E-35 II I've decided to change some of the rigging. I'm thinking of Garhauer cars, blocks, tracks, rigid boom vang , traveller, deck organizer and clutches. The price for these components seem very reasonable compared to Harken or lewmar. (Can...

    Lewmar Blocks

    I recently came upon information that may be old news to some, but was unknown to me. My '88 E34 came equipped with Lewmar Ocean 2 series blocks. Over the years, as I added halyards and other lines I needed to add blocks, which turned out not to be Lewmar because they where given to me by...

    Genoa car blocks for 86 E381

    Hello all, this is my first time on this site. I bought an 1986 E381 last year...love this boat so far! However, I have no genoa car blocks on the inside tracks and am thinking about doing some club racing. The Shaefer blocks I have on the outside tracks will not fit on the inside tracks...

    1973 E-25 Traveler Blocks?

    I know this one's a long shot, but here goes. I've got what I believe to be the original over-cabin, 3/4 boom, traveler system on my 1973 E25, and the sheaves in the blocks are shot. Complicating this, is that I have been unable to find any identifying marks on the blocks other than an "S" or...
