Hi All,I am looking for ideas. I have rigged my main halyard to the cockpit so that I can raise the sail from the saftey of boata firma. I can better/safer solo sail this way without watching the boat sail to Michigan without me. It sort of works but I can not get the sail all the way up. To be fair it is not my rigging either, even with 200lbs of body swinging on the halyard (at the base of the mast) I can not get the sucker all the way up. Is there some kind of lubrication for the runners. Any advice would be welcomed. Next, getting the thing down........it needs help. From on top it is fine I just pull it down, but from the cockpit I must rig an anti-halyard. Can I simply rig a line to the halyard clip and pull it down, via pulleys, from the cockpit? Again any thoughts would be most helpful.Last, how about tiller extensions..............any thoughts.Regards Phil and Madrigal
