Hello group. I need your assistance.

This is my first cat, I had an adventure island previously. I just bought a hobie 14 but it came without a main block. Apparently it was stollen from the beach last time the old owner used it.

What should I buy? I see a lot of discussion on harken vs nautos blocks. I will just use it for recreation and teach my daughters how to sail.

Any advice?

Can't go wrong with Harken 2.25" low profile blocks. 5:1 or 6:1 purchase would be appropriate.
