Stanchion Blocks For Roller Furling Line

[JSM]

Looking at stanchion block setups for the roller furling line on our 34-2. Currently have solid eyes attached to the stanchion bases and the line appears to have sawed almost though some of them. Currently considering both the Harken and Garhauer products.
Would appreciate any input or recommendations.

Our original phenolic eyes wore badly too. I changed to the Garhauer ones because they lead the line to the outside of the stanchion and help keep the deck clear. I believe that Schaefer has a nice design too.

Second those garhauer stanchion blocks. They lead the furling line outboard and clean up the deck. The only slight inconvenience is that now my furling line goes right over waste deck fitting and I have to bungee it away during pump out.
