This small black Ronstan kite block seems to work the best while testing with
the mast down. The small Harken HL block, in my hand, wants to twist even with
no load on it binding the halyard between the mast and the cheeks of the block,
it took quite a bit of effort to move the halyard, but the Ronstan block
doesn't twist and the halyard moves freely. I imagine the same thing was
happening with the large Ronstan block originally in the kit. I'll report back
after Memorial Day weekend sailing.
Sincerely,
Mark
