Great information all, and thank you. In response to a few comments, Had originally thought of a Crane also at the masthead, and somehow incorporating a bail into the anchor roller, but as noted, with three halyards and a few options at the bow, it is probably not necessary. I guess the crane etc went away for windage reasons? Something at the anchor roller casting could be added later maybe. I will add a a belaying point at the mast for one of the wing halyards. No brainer, now that someone else suggested it! On chafe, wraps. I still have the original wire halyards and have noted abrasion from same at the masthead. Will replace with rope over the winter, and per the article referred, mark to ensure a full hoist. Outside/inside? Outside absolutely, and I should have stated that in my post. I can't imagine trying to tack that sail inside on a 33-2. Last, single or short handed? single, with Otto, sibling of George, doing his thing at the helm. Thanks again, all set.
