Thank you Gregory.  I applied several coats of wood stain.

And thanks for the tissue suggestion for the hammock.  Daniel Dusek suggested using the extra gauze so that's what i did.  More to come.

Hi all,

This is another call for help.

I am finishing my Le Coureur and I don't know how to rig its anchors.  As expected no instruction from Mamoli on this topic.

Any suggestion?  Thank you in advance.

Look through this anchor rigging on GBarlow's Cheerful..

 

 I don't think you can go wrong by using this information. ( follow the arrow at the top right of the post quote.. )

Thank you for the suggestion Gregory.  I took a look at it (page 25) and it looks excellent.  My issue is that there is no belaying pin available inside to attach the anchor rope to.

I have a picture below of what I could do to free up a belaying pin.

Here is my thinking but it could be heresy: the two ropes in the green box have to be tied together on belaying pin 3 (green circle) and the two ropes in the blue box are supposed to be tied to belaying pin  4 (blue circle), next to pin 3.  To free up pin 4 for my anchor, could I tie the two ropes in the blue box to the free pins under the red circle?  There are a couple of pins available there. (Note that the laundry pins are only temporarily holding the lines in place.)

Thank you!

thanks for the suggestions.  It's pretty crowded now and wont be easy with all the ropes hanging around but I'll give it a try.

Thanks again Gregory.
