The Garhauer versions work really well… at about half the cost of Harken.
All the hardware on Imzadi, and everything except the traveler on Belle, is Garhauer. I’m a big fan.

I currently have 3 for halyards, 1 for mainsheet, 1 for boom furling line and 1 for center board. I'm was considering Schafer stainless because they look great but, I'm now thinking, some kind of plastics would be better for when they fall against the new paint. I'm wondering if anyone has any recommendations about brands, quality vs cost, etc... All my existing blocks are pretty old and I'm sure, aren't as friction free as they should be. I've kept the old deck organizers and I'm planning on replacing the sheaves. I've got the new mast sheaves on the way. I ordered them From Zephyrworks. I may have them do the deck organizer Sheaves too. He said he could rebuild any block too. I think I'm going to have him rebuild the 1 Schaefer exit block I needs to be replaced.
