00 110 Series 0 blocks x 2

Fitting Instructions:

Place the mast base plate along the centreline of the boat behind the mast slot so that the loops are aligned fore and aft. Measure 24mm from the back of the mast slot along the centreline and draw a position line at right angles.

Introduce the mast base plate, centre, then mark the two fixing holes. Drill two 4mm pilot holes, put sealant in the screw holes then affix with 5mm self tapping screws (not provided). On very old Lasers, you can use the original screw holes where the bullseye attaches.
