How is it Done?--Halyards E23-E27?
This has puzzled me for a long time. My mast has 4 sheaves w/ (1)internal main & (1)internal jib halyard. The 4 sheaves make sense if you have external halyards(WHAT DO YOU HAVE?) With 2 sheaves unused, I would really like to run 2 ea. internal main & jib halyards w/2 new exit plates @ the mast base. At this time I have one long halyard line from the pulpit to the stern over the unused sheaves as a backup.
What I can't figure out w/o disassembling the sheave pack, is the mast section open under the crane???? I also want to replace the light wiring, wind machine wiring & VHF antenna lead, to bring everything up to date. This will be a spring '08 project, so I've got time to ponder, any input appreciated.
Also is the spinnaker halyard(for those that have one) internal or external?
Hurray, my first attachment worked
