Along these same lines, I'm planning on replacing the wire jib halyards with the new, lighter weight technora or spectra lines. Will the existing (original) sheaves handle a
5/16" Technora cored line? What about using just the core with no cover? Or have the cover just on the part that has to hold on the winch and through the rope clutches? I'm also planning on doing the same with the main and spinnaker halyards. Any comments on making these changes?
