Re: M_Boats: : Halyard line

THANKS JOE, THE HALYARDS ON SELKIE ARE EXTERNAL. IT IS A 1978 BOAT, I DON'T KNOW IF THEY WERE EVER INSIDE THE MAST. LON Subject: Re: M_Boats: : Halyard line Lon, The Vectra hallyards work great on Griselda and the existing sheaves handle the line smoothly. One advantage is that the all vectra hallyards eliminate the knots inside the mast that attach the rope tails to the wire and allow more room in the mast for the masthead and anchor light wiring and the VHF antenna coax. Once I had removed 20 years accumulation of bird's nests from the mast, it was an easy job. Griselda sat in my brother's back yard for 20 years before I brought her to my house and did the refurb.
