I wish to mount a halyard suitable to hoist a chute of some kind to the Selden Mast but local knowledge in my remote mooring is lacking. There is a shackle(hoop/eye) plate on the prow for attachment, plus a space at the port side foot of the mast for an extra pulley as well as a spare cleat in the cockpit, so the possibility was envisaged. Can anyone clarify the following:- will a pulley(sheave) be already fitted at the top of the mast to take a halyard? There is no obvious gate (hole) in the lower port side of the mast which would be a fairlead exit for a halyard. Is one to be cut into the mast? There are small holes towards the foot of the mast but these seem to small to take a halyard. Any advice before I throw money away on a visit from a rigger (from some distant town) would be appreciated and I would not wish to appear uninformed. Michael
