In his 'Masting and Rigging', Lees talks about the brails running through blocks on either side of the mast and down to the deck, but he isn't specific of exactly where on deck they were secured. John

Nice to see 'Waratah' being built, Chris. There are heaps of photos on line as she's part of the Sydney heritage fleet collection. John

A good start to a fine small craft. John

Pat, i had a look in the junk box and found a spent .243 cartridge case. The business end of it is (of course) .243" ID which is about 6mm, but this section of the case is only about 6mm long. If that's any good to you I'd be happy to send it when our lockdown allows me to get to a post office. John- 1,006 replies
