[Public-List] Needing a New Main Halyard

[George Dinwiddie]

Jeffrey,

You might want to look at http://alberg30.org/collaborate/RunningRigging 
  to see what others have used (and you can leave your own preferences 
there).  I typically like 7/16" line for easier gripping, but I think 
the mast sheave limits you to 3/8".  Beware, though, that's from memory 
and mine's not always accurate.

You might check with Gord Laco to see what deals he has on line.
