Replacement of Mainsheet Blocks - Hanse 350

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hello;
The cheek-plate on one of the original Lewmar cabin-top mainsheet blocks on my 2008 H350 (with the single-ended German mainsheet arrangement) cracked and I'll need to replace it. It appears to have been manufactured from finely engineered papier mache, so I'm planning to replace both.

I was wondering if anyone had replaced these blocks on their boat, and if so:
- if you have any recommendations for replacement hardware, and 
- if there's anything to note about the replacement process - ie, can the same bolts be reused, do they need to be reseated, holes filled and redrilled, etc.?

Many thanks,

Phil
