Hi, I'm trying to find new sheaves to replace those in the attached pic which guide the continuous furling line on my Catalina 27. Any ideas where I can find some?

Thanks guys. I'd seen the alternative gear but was hoping to get replacement sheaves for my existing equipment since they look to be replaceable. I'm all for repairing rather than replacing if at all possible!

Did you ever find new sheaves that fit this block, or a new similar block? Looking for the same myself.

No, I'm still looking. Think I need to measure the sheaves tomorrow and look online. I'll post back if I find any.

I believe the sheaves are 1" diameter at the edge, 3/4" diameter at the waste, 1" wide, 1/4" pin. These should be cheap compared to similar replacement blocks ($80-$100). Keep trying!
