Well, I like ratlines. Ratlines mean masts and shrouds are on, when ratlines are finished you just got the sails to rig lol.

 It might be because you don't sing the ratline  tune, 99 ratlines on the wall 99ratlines on the wall. Sing this and the time just Flys by  lol.     :cheers:

Hello lovelies,
I have a problem. I'll post a photo of the construction plan in a moment. According to the plan, I should brace the top of the mast with maids. According to the description, these should be attached to the shrouds. From my physical point of view, I can't cope with that. I've just tried it, with the logical result that the shrouds are lifted and the mast loses tension. 
Is this really how it was done in real life, or is it just the simple Occre variant of simply tying the thing down somewhere?

There was also the question of whether the rather thick sails supplied would be installed. Thanks to my daughter, this was resolved today as she gave me some smart blouses that she no longer wears.
But I would like to install them gathered, does anyone have any photos of this, there are few on the net.

Thank you for your efforts
