I have had the mast seal redone at the deck level of my 575 and it looks like a very clean good job.
However it probably leaks worse than before.I am being told it might be the halyard sheaves and apparently there is a product that will cure the situation.The water seems comes down the outside of the mast and also drips from the mast slot.

I would welcome any ideas or suggestions on this issue

Many thanks

Check out the grove at the back of the mast if the foot repair is going up the mast without sealing the grove, I made that mistake when I repaired mine I got more weather after than before after fixing it with sikaflex it stoped, perhaps check the self tacking track that the screws aren’t lose as it can also leak in that area
