Subject: [Public-List] Mast Sheave

Toward the end of the season the main's halyard became wedged between the 
sheave and the mast preventing me from dropping the main.  Unfortunately in 
the time I was able to address the issue the main sail was significantly 
damaged by wind.  Apparently the halyard slipped beside the sheave wheel and 
wedged in between the wheel and mast.  Looking at the mast there is plates 
that seem to direct the halyard line to the wheel with screw holes 
indicating possible guides which I am lacking.  I am curious as to whether 
anyone else has had this issue and the appropriate correction as I am likely 
going to have to buy a new main and obviously I do not want a repeat 
occurrence.

Thank you,
Dwayne
