Hi everyone. I am new to Hobies and am nearly done repairing/rebuilding my 1978 H16. I want to order new lines, but am struggling to figure out what jib halyard system i have. Based on pictures of the blocks i found online it looks to me like this is an Aussie style, but I was told Aussie jib halyards have about 70 feet of rope vs 20 feet for the standard style. My boat came to me disassembled with a box full of parts and extra parts. Can anyone tell what this is based on this picture? Thanks!
