Our mast head sheaves


 Our sheaves were plastic and for line but for one and it was steel and for the SS wire jib halyard and or line. You can run line on the jib sheave itf it is not sacred up. Then you could remove it and clean up any scaring and replace it then run the line. We got lucky and found a replacement sheave at Sailing Supply in San Diego and it was their last one. They need to be the same width and the center hole need to fit the pin good.
Our jib steal sheave was in good shape so we left it there as the rigger (Ray at Rigworks) said it would work just fine with line. We will get a new line jib and main halyard soon for Riggingonly.com.
We replaced the plastic main Hayward with a steel one. We also removed all the sheaves and cleaned the head and etc etc.
