hi all,
Some progress on the Conrad.
Four out of 5 of the foremast stays are in and the jib halyards and down-hauls in place.
The outermost stay does not have a jib on it.
The down-haul and the halyard lines go to the same belaying pin.
It is possible that these 2 lines could be the same rope, pull one and release the other.
Somehow I changed the font. Don't know how. Oh well.
It may appear that there is an extra block on the mast in each halyard.
This block is needed to direct the line to behind the yard so it doesn't foul the sail.
This pretty well clears up the foremast so the mainmast is next.
cheers Jim
