        <![CDATA[ Cat's Paw, 1998 C42mkII (hull no. 627), was commissioned with two internal headsail halyards.

			<description><![CDATA[ Hey, JR-<br>
            <br>
            I have hull No. 618 which should be very similar to your No. 627. The mast is by Charleston Spars and does not have a spinnaker crane although there are cutouts for the halyard. A few years back I talked to Charleston Spars about modifications needed for an asymmetrical. They said I needed a masthead &quot;spinnaker crane&quot; which they no longer (at that time) included on the stock masts for the Catalina 42. One can be ordered from them which they... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ There are two separate questions here.<br>
            <br>
            First, how does the masthead look on YOUR boat? The spar business has been marked with bankruptcies and mergers over the past few years. At one time, around 1997 or 1998, Catalina was using masts from two suppliers at the same time. The configurations were similar, but not identical.<br>
            <br>
            Assuming there is actually a difference between the two halyards at the masthead, other than merely port... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Yes, the halyard marked Spinnaker is run thru a block attached to a forward bail/crane which is &quot;outside&quot; and forward of the masthead sheave which is used for your jib halyard. This configuration diminishes the possibility of it interfering with the forestay.<br>

			<description><![CDATA[ The headsail halyards are supposed to be for jibs, they will chaff if used for a spinaker.  Look about 3 to 4 feet down from the mast head on the sides of the mast and there should be a outlet for spinaker halyard (1 port and 1 Stb) with and eye strap fairlead.  my dealer told me if I don't use the spinaker too much the jib halyards may be o.k. but they WILL chaff<div class='signature'>Later, Codge<br>
