I replaced Ox's original(?) wire/rope headsail halyard with Cajun XLE. No
problems with the sheaves. Once in awhile I have to tighten the halyard to
remove a few wrinkles from the luff. I can live with that.

All the talk on the Laser site is about Dynex Dux. They heat the dynema and
it increases the strength and reduces the stretch. they are talking using it
for the standing rigging. I think the 4mm is good to 8800 lbs. I would have to
go back to the site to confirm it.

I did it myself for all my halyards, but I'm funny like that.

If you still have your original sheaves, you might want to replace them anyway.
I had my mast down in March, and when inspecting the sheaves, I found them to
