It looks like I can add a half inch post “attachment point” into an open hole of change the mainhalyard block to a double to accommodate the downhaul line. Any thoughts on how I should proceed. Obviously any new double block has to be able to handle the mainsheet load.

Mine has the solid hole options as opposed to my last boat which had clip on rings. I don’t happen to have a pic but could get one if you all are as stumped as I am. Going to add because there is a bit of friction in the main and I’m trying to avoid going on deck in a bad sea.
