I tied as much as I thought I could on the main sail, while it was on the work bench.

hopefully the next post I’ll have it raised.

I do need to take some action on the pedestals before I get carried away with the sails.

So far so good, I got the main sail raised. I need to secure it to the mast.IMG_6230.thumb.jpeg.6afadcbf32b954415c2bc538c28463e0.jpeg

I drilled the keel and put brass rods in them. They stuck down further than the kit base. I glued the base to the old pram building board and drilled holes for the rods so it could set all the way down.

That gave me room to tape the leads to the board and tie them off later. I have marked each line with its destination. I’m sure there will be some confusion later, but maybe not as much:-)
