[martnj32567substitute]

oday 23 has a foot block on each side of the mast i didnt take these off the previous owner did to get



sheaves replaced now does anyone no which way these go big sheave in the front or back

And the lines run aft from the block? The only way that would work is with the big one in front.

Thanks for the info i wasnt sure about that the lines run aft

pretty much what ruidh said... big sheave either forward or at the bottom, depending on the orientation of the mounting holes.

The thing to do when possible is to run control lines to the cockpit so you can do everything without having to go forward.
