    I was wondering if you can help me.

    The rigging knots for main gaff blocks going to the mast. I'm a relative beginner and can't find anything on the rigging of these. Can you help or do you have someone to recommend?

    Thanks

      Hi Helmar:

       

      I posted a couple of responses on my build log in reply to your earlier question - Can you provide a photo or two (eiuther of your model or the plans) of what you're having issues with - is it the peak halliard blocks rigged onto the gaff? Or the ones on the mast? I tried to describe the process in the responses on my build log, but it's really hard to find clear language to explain these processes.....my work life is extremely busy at the moment, but if I have time and you describe your issue or send photos to show the area you're having trouble with, I might be able to provide photos of my process to illustrate it for you....I can't guarantee these would come fast, since as I say my working life is ramping up for the next couple of weeks, so time will be precious....but I'll see what I can do if the descriptions and photos I've posted at the end of my BN log aren't sufficient.
