Hello all, 

I have been working on my rigging the last few days and noticed that my main 
halyard has several weak and frayed places on it. I need to replace it but I'm 
not real comfortable going up the mast with the jib halyard either. My boat is 
a 1978 with external halyards. I'm wondering if it is possible to use the new 
halyard as a messenger line and just run it through. I haven't seen the 
sheave's so I've no idea what it looks like at the top and whether or not it 
will pull through.

Has anyone here had to do this?

Thanks

Chris
