Mainmast lower deadeye and shrouds done, now do I start ratlines to break up the monotony? or move to the foremast shrouds.

 

[Bri62]

Done for today.

 

[Neil Merryweather]

[Jim R]

All looking a bit ropey to me

I'm for ratlines to break up the tedium.

[Tim Marlow]

[Bri62]

Cheers Tim,
This morning didn't know what to do so started on the foremast shrouds then thought do I remember how to tie ratlines, and the answer was NO took me a while to figure it out! but I got there Made a start then sorta gave up today........fresh start tomorrow.

 

[Bri62]

I just remembered how much I dislike doing ratlines

 

[Bri62]

Woke this morning with a sore throat and a hacking cough so not much done today. I need to stay positive with the ratlines and spread the love a day on ratlines and a day on shrouds/dead eyes.

Rigging is going along nicely Brian. I hope you are feeling better soon, but at least you now have a valid reason to sit at the bench all day

 

[Bri62]

I've took a turn for the worse and its turned into a full blown cold, Strange that I had a flu jab a couple of days ago! so no bench time today.

 

[Jim R]

Stay in, stay warm and have plenty of fluids and get better soon.

 

[flyjoe180]

That's no good Brian, take it easy and recover soon.

 

[Bri62]

Cheers guys on day 3 and starting to feel better
