Typhoon Owners - Mainsheet Stand-Up Block Info

Post by Mike Payne »

Just an FYI...

Schaefer Hardware discontinued the original style square base, 4 screw, stand-up mainsheet blocks found on many Typhoons; and only offer a 3 screw round base replacement at ~$70 each. However, I stumbled on some new-old-stock square base blocks (Product ID SK-7058) in Schaefer's Website Closeout area for $44.95 each. If yours are on the downside of life, these match the screw pattern and specs. Hope this helps.
