I used www.Zephyrwerks.com<http://www.Zephyrwerks.com> for replacement sheaves for Calypso’s Palmer / Johnson custom made spin sheet blocks. Zephyrwerks is based out of a small shop in Port Townsend WA. (My favorite PNW port even after they tore down the iconic Town Tavern, a scene of much of the verses or “What do you do with a drunken sailor”.)
Fast turnaround, great quality, and a reasonable price. Email the owner if you don’t see what you want on his web page. I sent several of the old sheaves to Zephyrwerks to help in determining the new bushing sizes. IIRC the new sheaves showed up in less than 2 weeks.

The old sheave is Aluminum, OD 1 3/4" Dia X 1/4" thick with a 5/16" Dia ID. I have checked Rigrite's stock sized and they don't list one. I think I will call them to see if they have anything. The old sheave did not have a bushing when I took it apart. The Outhaul has always been stiff, now I know why. The actual Sheave is 1 3/4 OD X 1/2 ID with (I assume) a 1/2 OD X 5/16 ID Oilite bushing. Any ideas? BTW, I have the builders file for Hull #70 from South Shore Yachts. I asked for the builders file for mine (Hull #7) and that is what they sent. It was originally delivered to Associated Yachts in Essex, Connecticut in July of 1971. The original buyer listed was Dr. Pepkowitz. If anyone knows of Hull #70, I'll send the file to them.
