We just pulled our jib sheave box and while the four spinnaker sheaves are fine, all three jib sheaves need replacement.
My box actually has sheaves installed for four halyards. I read earlier in the thread that only the uppermost one is the one used for the single spinnaker halyard configuration on a J/30?
Of the two jib halyard exits on the mast, which corresponds to the upper jib sheave + idler, and which corresponds to the lower jib sheave?
And it appears that the axles for the sheaves are riveted in place. Replacing them with standard clevis pins would mean I'd have to cut notches in my mast to get the box back in, which I'd rather not do. Can you buy these rivetable clevis pins, and what kind of tool does one use to install them?
Thanks,
Ryan Pierce, #337
