New rigging 100%

Updated: Apr 16, 2023

The new wire for the forestay has been installed by Sailcrafters on 4/13. We now have 100% new standing rigging. Sent the new spreaders to have the holes drilled and the endplates bolted on. Need to rewire the mast to prep for stepping of the mast. Jeff at the marina said it would be 3 weeks before launching, which is about one week behind schedule, due to flooding on the Mississippi. That gives me about four weeks to finish prepping the boat for launch.
