Typhoon main boom pulley arrangement?

Post by Sailing4ever »

The Boat (1984) Typhoon went in the water today and took it's first sail. I noticed that a pulley from the boom sheet had disappeared and now I need to restore it to workable condition. Question: Where can I find a clear picture/sketch of the boom sheet? Any help would be appreciated. Wow about a photo from a Typhoon which has the correct pulleys, etc. installed?

Here is my set up. I switched stuff out with harken It's not the exact same as the original.

I think the boom end block was originally a Schaffer with a becket.

I think you'll find this to be as originally fitted. Zoom in for a better view of your interests.

Here is a close up of the original boom pulley. I'm using it to hold my kayak up in the garage so it is not being used properly but it is the boom pulley.
