Hi Adam

The masthead on mine is also welded completely, the axles for the sheaves come out the sides.  Assuming yours is the same, on the side there will be a little stainless plate screwed onto the mast, get an impact driver to use to get the screw out and then give the stainless plate a twist with some pliers.  It should come out, which will free up the sheaves.  My boom is the built the same way.

This is a timely post.  How do you access the sheaves at the top of the mast?  My masthead is welded completely.  I have seen other masts where the top plate is bolted on.
