    Top Notch!

    Really a skillfuil, handsome and masterly solution to leading halyards inside the A/C mast.

    And a unique and reproducible way, while modernizing the halyards, to at the same time add tremendous support to the masthead.

    Those fore and aft locking plates...a marvelous way to button it up and still have later access to the mast.


    [Just got back 'my' beautifully welded aluminum sleeve ( meager upgrade for the original big sheave I kept) and opened the slot wider and longer to get it to fit. When I slipped it in, it was immediately evident that boxing that huge slot-hole is in iteself a very good idea to help reinforce the top of the mast.]
    Jerry's solution to locking in his double sheave assenbly
    that also uses the box to add stability to the myriad of stresses up there at the top of the mast is.... boss!
