Rigger to climb mast Medway area

[Charlandjaci]

Hi,
My boats based on the Medway by Upnor Sailing Club. Is there anywhere I can take my 26ft sail boat as I need a new halyard sent down mast, I would do myself but to be honest I’m slightly scared of heights and watching videos I don’t think my nerves would take it.
Any assistance would be highly appreciated

We recently replaced a sheave box on a Sigma over at Gillingham marina ,using the cherry picker in the lock to get the height .Gillingham charged us £60 for use of lock and hoist .

Any rigger should be able to manage working at the top of a mast; it should be a regular thing for them.
