      I am in the last strokes of putting all the hardware back on the cockpit
      coaming. I have some new gorgeous new Garhauer foot blocks (turning
      blocks) and have out the main winches back in their original (factory)
      location (sorry Tor, but could not figure out how to move them further
      aft since I have spinnaker winches and a different bimini arrangement).

      Along the way, I seem to have misplaced the blocks that went under the
      orignal foot blocks. I will be making some new wedges out of plasteak.
      Could anyone tell me the angles of the wedges on their boats? The
      SB foot block on my boat is atop the coaming. The Port one is on the
      side of the coaming.

      Thanks,

      Pete
