FYI. Our main halyard has been chafing in the mast so we pulled the
mast today and discovered that the halyard was led on the wrong side
(forward) of the through-bolt for the upper (rod) shroud ends. Even
worse, the boat must have had a wire halyard earlier with the same
problem, because the through-bolt was "sawn" halfway through! Luckily
we caught it before the rig failed. Lesson-learned.
