Thanks! That thread is amazing, I feel I may have earned a stripe or two doing it the ol' fashion way... screw by screw, picture by picture, PB Blast soak after soak ;-)
Moving on to the standing rigging now. The main halyard need replacing so going to replace and run an extra one as well. Currently I only have the Main Halyard and Genoa halyard so no safety line for a bosun chair and backup. Looks like I need a rigger to get up there and get these two halyard ran.
I was fiddling with the topping lift this morning hoping it could be my backup line but looks like it is secured to the masthead and ran through a block then through the boom to anchor point. Too bad.
Any nuggets of wisdom for a safety line that could get me up there instead of a rigger?
