I am thinking of replacing the halyard for the mailsail.  
I am just a cruiser with no interest in racing the boat. (Nothing wrong with 
racing, I'm just a Sunday driver...) I was thinking of a rope only solution 
just to save a couple bucks. Would your recommendation be to replace with a 
wire rope solution?
Thanks for your thoughts.
Steve

witch halyard are you replacing? you may not want to use rope due to excessive 
stretch.

I am thinking of replacing a wire and rope halyard with rope only. If I do 
this, will I have to replace the sheave as well?
 
Also, how long will this need to be if I want to run the halyard back to the 
cockpit?
 
Thanks,
 
Steve
