Anyone know the best way to re-reeve a Melges spinnaker  halyard?
Thanks

I have a roll of "fish tape", a long metal tape, which you can insert from top and pull it through.

You can get it pretty cheaply from Home Depot, worth having one around.

I use a wire fish.  Lay the mast forward side down, you want the halyard in front of the spreader bar.  use a flashlight to look up the mast to confirm you’re on the proper side of the spreader bar.  I think I fished from the top last time I did it.

We had an early start on beer sipping last night. Oh well.
