This is how I roll

Post by Nicknick32 »

To lazy to do it the right way so I rigged a forestry rigging block off my boom with a rope through it and onto the mast......easy. Nice to be able to set all the rigging for the season (fixed keel so I leave it in the slip all season)

Not to mention I totaly ripped off Mcrandall and his mast head idea :)
the spot lights and all. the light on the top is a 2 in 1 steaming/anchor light. with spreader lights as well. the only thing I didnt do and im kicking my self in the ass is the dwyer air foil spreaders. I tested all the lights and they work great. thank you to all who post on the forums to help people like me :)

next up/ the dodger sails so i can give her a shake down sail........then to wire the rest of the boat.

What do they call that tool you're using to gain access to the masthead? Oh, yeah, I think it's called a bosun's chair, right? It looks like the super deluxe model too. Looks like a mighty handy tool to have around.
