Hi. New owner of a 1989 Vision 32. Among the many things I need to do, is to replace sheaves in the pictured blocks at the base of my mast. Despite my best google-fu, I'm coming up empty handed. Questions:
- Are these blocks original from the factory, and therefore possibly shop made in Alachua?
- Can someone point me to a source for replacement sheaves to fit these blocks? If above is true, there must have been an OEM part?
- Is there a compelling reason to abandon these and replace them with aftermarket upright lead blocks? I haven't found anything wider than doubles in a rigid deck mount.
- What kind of Load Rating should I be looking for here? These lines are main halyard, vang, and maybe boom furler? (I'll have a closer look next week when I'm at the boat).
