[Rhodes22-list] IMF Mast and Sail

[Peter Nyberg]

Joe's mast might not have sheaves (pulleys), but mine does.  When I got the boat from GB, a line through the port sheaves was used as the topping lift for the boom.  I added a line through the starboard sheaves to serve as a halyard for my Doyle UPS headsail.
