Does anyone know how to tighten old rigging - hoping for an easy solution. I recently unpacked (we moved two years ago) my old Model Shipways Phantom (NY Pilot Boat) that I built as a waterline model for an HO railroad more than 30 years ago. I needed to replace the very top part of the masts as they had broken off at least one move back. A number of the rigging lines have gotten a little slack over the years and I'm wondering if there's an easy way to tighten them rather than replacing them as there isn't enough slack to cut and retie them.

Thanks in Advance
