Replacing a Wire Halyard Winch
I recently purchased a Redwing 30 that still has the wire halyard winch for the headsail. I understand they are problematic and dangerous. My question, is it possible to install a cheat on the mast, replace the all wire halyard with a rope and wire halyard and use the existing winch to hoist the headsail?
I eventually want to run everything to the back, so I was looking for a quick (inexpensive) fix in the meantime.
