Robbin, I recently bought replacement sheaves from Rigrite online. They have the most extensive list of sheaves I have found. The webpage with the sheaves is at: http://rigrite.com/Spars/SparParts/Sheaves.html#1%201/2 Good Luck Jeff ----- Original Message ----- From: "robbin roddewig" <robbin.roddewig@verizon.net> To: "For and about Montgomery Sailboats" <montgomery_boats@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Saturday, April 26, 2008 6:05 PM Subject: M_Boats: M-17 sheaves or mast head fitting
One of my sheaves (the wheels for the halyards) is broken. I have not been successful finding a replacement from the selections at West Marine or Dwyer. Has anyone replaced these or has anyone bought a new mast head for the M-17? I saw that there was a recommendation of Dwyer DM-4 for the M-15 but not similar recommended mast tube size for the 17. I am also trying to replace the wire halyards with rope halyards since I am leading these back to the cockpit. Is anyone using rope halyards?
Thanks in advance, Robbin
