Were dead-eyes and hearts tarred? Or they went black due to fact that the tar of the standing rigging ropes came oi contact ?


Ps is there a name for all this (dead-eyes, bull-eyes, hearts etc)standing rigging "blocks without sheaves"?
 
Thank you Dave... am going to read it carefully.

So sheaves or not, in english are all blocks. (Thats not the case in greek). Thank you again for this excellent document.
