+1 on that. Not a good idea to go up the mast when on the hard. The stability 
of the boat is quite limited with only the jack stands or the cradle pads 
support her laterally. The mast itself is an issue. Then you would be adding 
about 80-100 kg at the very top of it (the longest arm possible). Not to 
mention that you plan to replace the halyard sheaves, which you might be using 
to get there in the first place.

Barbara,

You may want to give some thought about going up the mast when the boat is on 
jack stands. Most yards that I know of strictly forbid it.

You should talk to Doyle Boston Sailmakers in Sarnia. They have done a lot of 
work for me over the years, including re-cutting and re-sizing, as well as a 
brand  new Dacron genoa. Not the cheapest option for new sails, but they are 
the go-to guys for the racers around here and they just might be able to 
breathe some new life into your baffed out old main. Full battens in a main can 
work wonders in light air. Or they might not, but they will tell you if you 
take the sail there. They are located close to the Bluewater Bridge and the 
Sarnia Yacht Club.

I value the 33-2's performance but most of my sailing is recreational

to be ultra-competitive at the top level.      Don't want to buy another
Main for this boat in the next decade.

Any thoughts or recommendations on a replacement, or comments on sail
lofts?  Many thanks!

Check out Precision Sails in Victoria BC. They have a great on-line site. Sails 
are made Asia somewhere but inspected and shipped from BC.  I got a 135 and 
asym from them this year. Very happy with the product and price.
