Anyone know if I could use a mainsail halyard from a H17 on my H16?
Both are comp. tip.

Thanks

No. They are completely different. The 17 halyard has no wire component like the 16's does. The 17 uses a ring/hook mechanism to latch the sail at the top of the mast, not the wire slug/catch mechanism that the 16 uses.

You could use a piece of the 17's halyard as the rope tail on a non-Comptip 16 halyard.
