Started to fit out the rear boom. Interesting that on the bottom of the boom there is a block and tackle setup that apparently goes nowhere. I seem to recall (and correct me if I'm wrong) that it is a tensioner to help prevent hogging of the boom itself.
In the Penobscott Marine Museum there is a schooner model with the same setup, belaying to the jaws.

And installed the bobstay chains as well. I tried 6 times to get them taught by myself, but wasn't happy. Ended up holding the knots and have my wife put on the glue.
Best I could do alone.
With extra hands, much better result.
