I need to replace the main sail halyard on my 45cc with Selden in mast furling. The portion of the line exposed to the elements is deteriorating. What is the connection from the top of the sail to the halyard?
Is it a line with an eye splice to connect a shackle to?
or
Is it a line with a bow line knot attached to a shackle?
What connects the sail to the halyard. Shackle?, Hook?
I can buy a new halyard with an eye splice already included; thinking I can use it to attach it to the old line at the boom location and pull it up thru the pulleys back to the deck
I would appreciate any insight from someone who has done this
