Mast down

Postby Erling H » February 4th, 2016, 3:22 pm

After watching the boats rocking about on Monday with the wind coming straight down the hill I have taken my mast down before the 50 plus knot winds arrive on Saturday so I can sleep well.

Not so many masts up now.

A few people are going down at 6.30 pm so if you haven't asked somebody to takes your down, you ought to go along then.

That mast in front of the web cam is moving a bit. Slack rigging?

The mast in front of the web-cam I believe is mine (tony), I am unable to come over sunday morning but Craig is, so if anybody could help him to lower it I would be grateful.

Hi Yvonne if I remember correctly we had to cut the cord on the forestay on your boat, couldn't undo the knot.

It was probably your bailing twine that we couldn't undo.
