Whew, I thought you were going to ask him to share the "body bag tent" with Mr. Fast!!!

No bananas on my boat.

Dixon, Big Bobby Birdsall taught me how to fix riggers for a friend years ago.

Cut back to straight stock on the riggers.

You are going to make an inner sleeve. Get stock that is @ 1/8 inch smaller od than the id of the rigger.

Wind caulk around the outside of the inner sleeve just like whipping rope ends.

Insert the sleeve in both ends of the rigger. Twist and twist while pushing together t`ill fully inserted and the gap is gone. Not restaurant quality , but it works.

Cheers,
The Bag
