A new mast

    Not for sailing, but we may rig a steadying sail sometime in the future. By summer we'll have a boom tent and the boom is great for lifting the dinghy aboard.  The ratlines are a great place to climb to get elevation for pictures and when the water warms up no doubt it'll make a good diving platform.

    The mast's made from macrocarpa 6 x 2"  planks laminated and scarfed. The boom we picked up second hand at Stanley Marine.

    Painted in Careys mast orange. Check the photos for the custom bronze castings, handmade teak blocks and cleats John made up, beautiful.
