I have an older sunfish with a racing sail. Everything seems old but
adequate. The spars are older with the halyard going through the
mast cap as opposed to a block. My question is how feasible would it
be to attach a cleat to the bottom of the mast to secure the sail?
What type of cleat and how should it be fastened, materials, etc.

Thanks

Clem,
See my reply on the SF Forum. The mast cap with hole is the newer
system. the pulley on the mast was the older system. subercub
