That's a mouth full! I'm always untangling my reefing and topping lift lines where they enter the boom. I noticed there seems to be two small white plastic pieces on each side of where the sheaves go, they looked to be broken. I checked out my neighbors 250 a couple slips down and now know my two little pieces should be one plastic rod that keeps the line from jumping off the sheaves and getting tangled.
Does anyone know of a source for replacement?

Having a lathe, I made a replacement from a scrap piece of carbon fiber. A drill and file might get the job done.

I went down to the boat before work this morning and knocked out one of the small broken peices to have something to measure the replacement with. The drill and file, is a great idea Arlyn thanks.
