I need to change the rope halyards for the main sail lift. The rope has frayed and the outer has separated from the inner. Can I just secure the new rope to the old, but the ends and wrap in tape and then slowly pull the new through? Or should I either get the mast stepped or have someone climb the mast to replace the rope?
Also anyone know what sort of size I should be using and any particular type of rope to use? I have had the boat for a little while but not assessed these ropes before and the owners club info doesn't have much information except for basic dimensions.
