Best method to replace halyards?
The easiest is to just tape them together, worked fine for me. The key is one thin layer of ape over two inches of each end, avoiding a thick clump at the joint. This won't stand excessive pull or ultra tight bends, but can be done and undone in seconds. If you use force, you will have both halyards out of the mask, and have to find the bosuns chair. If it does not go in smoothly, just pull it back and revert to the sewing method. On Jul 30, 6:42 pm, Stephen Trapani wrote: 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? Thanks, Stephen |
