The main on Flight Risk is very difficult to raise or more difficult than I think it should be. Would anyone please share info on replacing the halyard sheaves? There seem to be good resources for replacements, but I cannot remember what the masthead looks like exactly with respect to their access. She's a '76 C$C 33-1. Once the mast is unstepped, I think I could replace them myself. Has anyone here done this? Does it require any special tools? Can I get replacements before I have the old ones out? Thx for any info or directions. Barbara H. Fellers "Flight Risk" C&C 33-1 hull #151 Charleston, SC
