Best method to replace halyards?

I have halyards needing replaced, two of them go inside the mast. How do you attach the new line to the old and thread them? Is there a best direction to pull? Any other advice?... I butt the ends together and sew them with a bit of whipping thread and a sail needle and then wrap the connection with electrical tape to make is smooth. If your new halyards have spliced shackles then you need to send them up tail first, otherwise direction isn't all that important. -- Tom. |
