Neil Much appreciated. The picture is very helpful. As an aside, my boom is round. Did you replace yours at some point? Cheers, James

That's just a messenger line in it, but you can see the lead. You can also see that some PO put another lead through the splash rail outboard of the groove, it's just a PVC tube through a hole. I use that for the whisker pole topping lift. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1axg6mSDjplwNf8AYS_2LHg9KBEM_ijMR8A/view?usp=sharing Neil Gallagher Weatherly, 35-1 Glen Cove, NY On 12/11/2017 10:05 PM, Jim via CnC-List wrote: Neil If you have any pictures similar to what Dennis sent to show how your main halyard exits the mast (assuming it runs up inside) that would be appreciated. My main halyard is all wire, not rope / wire so might be different than what you had. The jib and spinnaker halyards are rope / wire. My 35-1 has the same grooves in the splash rail so intend run them from the mast through a turning block back through the grooves into rope clutches as there are already winches back there. Thanks to everyone who has provided feedback. Much appreciated.

Didn't do anything regarding the masthead sheave, and it's been ok. I cruise mostly, as for racing my sails are so blown out a slight strecthing of halyard won't make much difference... A PO had run the main and one jib halyard back to the cockpit; my 35-1 has a grooves in the splash rail that's just forward of the hatch, they run P/S through those grooves. He mounted a turning block on the deck in line with the halyard exit on the mast and the groove, and put a kind of smaller winch on the aft end of the deckhouse. It's worked fine so far, though the backing under turning blocks wasn't done well, just screws and washers to the underside of the liner. That's been on my list.

When you say a small diameter high tech halyard should work, what diameter where you thinking? I purchased 8mm VPC (but have not tried it). I'm reluctant to go much smaller as it may be hard to hold / pull on. Thanks again for the pictures, I am going to take a closer look at my end to see what is possible. Cheers, James ps: my 35-1 is s/n 75 so very close to yours. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dennis C. via CnC-List" <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> To: "CnClist" <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Cc: "Dennis C." <capt...@gmail.com> Sent: Sunday, December 10, 2017 12:27:40 PM Subject: Re: Stus-List new haylards James, I have looked at Touche's main halyard masthead sheave and box with an eye to replace the existing wire/rope halyard with an all rope halyard. Touche's sheave is a wire sheave not a wire/rope sheave. The sheave box is fairly narrow. So far I've been reluctant to make the conversion. It would require a couple hours work at the masthead to enlarge the opening and install a new box. This would be complicated by the existing hole pattern. My opinion, and that of some other listers is that a small diameter high tech halyard would work in the existing sheave. However, I have removed the wire winch and run the main halyard aft. I removed the fixed halyard exit sheave at the mast base, covered the hole with a metal plate and installed Garhauer swivel turning blocks for all the halyards, topping lift, etc. The halyards run aft to Lewmar triple rope clutches. As I recall, the wire winch sat on a teak base on the starboard side. I simply plugged the holes with teak bungs. You're welcome to look at pictures of Touche's deck organizers, mast base turning blocks, etc. here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B_sb5TfIENvsNll4b3ZwM1B4a28 The holes for the fasteners for the deck organizers and rope clutches are covered by nylon plugs. Here's a pic of the plugs covering the nuts for the rope clutches. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1ep3_LqsCzqnnNYUtU6OPFDGGeMoeA3jo I upgraded the cabin top winches to Barient 22's. That required strengthening the deck under the winches. I epoxied additional layers of roving in the access. You're welcome to contact me for any details. Dennis C.

Halyards are solid colors and sheets, outhauls etc. flecked or with tracers. (By following this convention, crews are able to move from boat-to-boat without having to be re-educated.)
