I use Sta-Set X 3/8” on my main halyard of my C&C 32 that I actively club race.

That's what I have on my 35 with the original sheaves.

A hybrid high tech line like New Englands “VPC” is much less expensive ($1.79/ft for 7/16” at defender) and it only would need an eye splice at one end. As for replacing the sheeves, may of us on the list have had no problems running all-rope halyards over the original sheeves.

However, after a fairly lengthy discussion with sailmaker and rigger, I decided to replace with wire rope. I wasn't that keen in replacing the sheeve at the masthead, and my rigger successfully argued that the wire rope halyard had served it's purpose well for the last 30 years...(not sure if was original) so why not replace it with the same. That statement probably cost him a fair bit of profit as all rope halyard would have been more expensive, but I respect him for giving an honest answer.

It still has wire to rope halyard and am either going to replace with a new one or change out to all rope. My question is what size has anyone used on a c&c 30 mki (1972). I know all rope is the go to choice nowadays but I like the feel of the larger diameter rope end of the wire to rope.
