I have a Hunter 19-1.

http://sailboatdata.com/viewrecord.asp?class_id=6218

It hasn't been in the water in over 10 years and I started fixing it up. Yesterday I raised the mast and everything seems pretty solid.
The one thing I can't figure out at the moment, I'm hoping someone can advise me on this. I can't figure out how to rig main sheet on the boom. I know it attaches in the stern somewhere and then runs along the back half of the boom and then down to the cleat. The main thing I don't see is where/how it attaches in the stern. I might be missing some hardware. If anyone is familiar with this boat (or something similar) please let me know. thanks!

@Crazy Dave Condon will know the most. It appears, though, that the mainsheet attaches to a bale 3/4 way aft on the boom and goes straight down to an attachment point in the cockpit. What you see on the diagram is the backstay which keeps the mast from falling forward.
Hopefully Dave and others will chime in soon.
Welcome to the forum!

Never had this boat but, from the pic and diagrams I think the main sheet is a multipart block and tackle from a boom bale (look for a hole thru the boom side to side to attach the U shaped bail - shows on the picture) down to a main sheet slide on a track that runs across the cockpit (plan view diagram shows the track, but broken in center to show the keel below)
