Trying to think back a couple months.... I basically had the overhand knot of the strop tied before I slipped it over the block. If you're having problems, tweezers and alligator clips are your best friends. See if you can locate a set of mounted alligator clips. They come in a set of at least two mounted to a pedestal, some even come with a built on magnifying glass. Andy -

It's one thing to stick your nose out the door and go "*sniff* Hmmm cold out..." and the retreat back inside.. Try having to clear frozen sounding pipes, valves and other plumbing work, when the contents of said plumbing would prefer not to exist in a liquid state... Oh yeah... Did I mention that at the same time you yourself has also been forced to endure said frigid temperatures for several hours and most likely due to the aforementioned issues are also soaked to the skin (yet the outer layers of your clothing has begun to freeze).... "Man up"..... Yeah... Sure... You first... Andy

Implacable (Duguay Trouin) - moved by moderator
realworkingsailor replied to Matrim's topic in Nautical/Naval History
I think people don't realise the true cost of keeping a museum ship, let alone restoring one. It's easily in the millions of $$ per year, and unless there's some kind of public support, most good natured intentions are doomed to fail. Andy -
