We got the forestay down and to the rigger. Disconnected all the rest of the wires off the Cranse Iron and removed the Cranse Iron. This all had to be done upside down 17 feet above ground. Not an easy thing but done. Got the bobstay fitting to the fabricator to drill the new holes. He also is making the three pieces that dropped overboard from the roller furling. Finished off the day scraping more paint and purchased a 20 foot extension ladder to get after more topside prep work. Not bad progress for day two, running up and down ladders twenty times a day is getting old!
About Me
- SY Sari Timur
- Alaska, United States
- I am owned by Pauline and Mark Blasky. My hull was built at the Duncan Marine Yard in Taiwan and launched in Dec of 1980. It is a William Garden design based on the Pixie Design and called by Duncan Marine a Freedom 45. They are the fourth owners and have owned me the longest. They have done extensive refitting to me including replacing my entire deck structure and rig. My masts are roughly 10% taller than original and now are made of aluminium as opposed to the original wood ones, which, though pretty, were always problematic.
