Any good non-swivel boom blocks out there?
I’m trying to find a block to set up my mainsheet for 2:1 reefing.
I'd prefer to tie the mainsheet to the boom, then down to said block on the bridle, then back up to the existing block that leads forward.
I like the block (link below) for this purpose, as the roller is at a right angle to the bridle attachment end, no extra line needed. However, Sunfish Direct would charge me $11.95 to ship this tiny item to New Jersey, which is just outlandish and galling!!! I'm sick and tired of these...
