Rigging a boat Worksop #2 RECAP



What a wonderful day it was to be at the marina. We got the mast up on "Epic" our Ocean 21 boat. Many thanks goes out to Big John, Little John, Jill, Rob, Scott (guest), Bernie and Ben. It was a vaulable exercise as we had no example to rig this boat (first time for the club) so it was truely a team effort and they came through!!! Great job and, errr Jill, those thingees on the jib sheet are called "Hanks". I had forgotten too.






Cheers,


Commodore
