What kind of sheet and length of sheet for the main do you guys recommend for my 1985 H16 that I just bought?

I got her home and noticed that the blocks were missing from the traveler so I called the guy up and he found it out in his garage and I went and picked it up. The actual sheet is missing from the traveler though.

Any special recommendations?

Thanks in advance,

Maury

current boats get 44' of 5/16 line. Older boats came with 3/8 line Call you dealer and get some on the way so you can go sailing!

Thanks Sunjammers,

This is an 85. So I assume that I would use 3/8. Right?

Best Regards,

Maury

it depends on the blocks, 3/8 will work on all of them but the 5/16 runs thru the blocks better
