[quote=Indyxc][quote=mummp]You can get if from anyone who is a Harken dealer, which is just about everyone. The part was common across a lot of different boats in the classic line. I would call Harken, ask for Jim or one of the small boat guys and they should fix you right up. Or upgrade to the new Carbo line, which has a better angle range, which was a drawback to the classic blocks. If I had to order new, I would get the new carbo series ratchamatics.
O.K. Andrew, I know your just chompin' at the bit for somebody to ask, so . . . I'll bite. Why the user name change? MN3??[/quote]
Hey guys,
I am in the great lakes region, SE Michigan, but will be sailing mostly on Cass Lake, which is about 1300 acres.
I will be sailing this season, and doing most of the work over the winter, but do want to get it up and running as is.
I ended up going to a local sail shop, and the had a similiar block but it was the newer rachomatic type with the load sensing ratching system. I need ONE of this weekend, so I bought it, and will just get a replacement matching one over the winter vai ebay.
Anyway, are these rachomatic ones, seen here:

Are these worth it over the standard one way rachet for the jib?
