Mast Fittings

[John Tucker]

Aloha , I am trying to find out where the cleats fit on a 1978 Mac25 mast. My boat seems to have been modified by past owners.I am trying to find which side of the mast the main halyard and jib halyard are suppose to be. Pictures, would be of great help.Lastly any help getting me started is greatly appreciated. Mahalo, John

Halyard cleats

I have a 1982 Mac25 and don't know if they would be the same but mine are both deck cleats mounted on the mast, Jib on the right side if you are in the cockpit and the main mounted on the left, both about a foot off the deck. The jib halyard actually comes down the front of the mast and the main halyard comes down the back of the mast but they use the cleats on the sides of the mast anyway. I have only owned the boat a year but it looks like that is the way it was designed..I don't have any pic's but maybe someone with a 78 model will respond if yours is different from mine.
