[Public-List] Mast Heads for the Alberg

[C.B. Currier]

However, some boats have internal halyards as rigged originally. So this
would not make rigging halyards internally illegal.

Infinity -
#57 (my boat) has the main rigged internally. I do not remember how the
jib is rigged. On Daybreak - #458 my other A30 both halyards were rigged
internally. Now the jib is external & the main is internal. That is
how I purchased it .
