C22 Masting

First race in Wed night, so Still Time's mast had to get up.

The wind instrument did not work last season, so I removed the cabling and wind transducer and hooked them up on ACE.  Turns out that the cable in the mast is faulty and I will have to order another.  Takes a couple of weeks to come in.

Decided to put the mast up sans transducer.

Had to fill the hole where the cable goes through the mast step:

Bluenose on a dime

Scott and Gary gave me a hand

The mast crane cable deflected the windex feathers, so I had to go up in a bosun's chair using the crane to correct.

Going back to dock

I will drop the mast after the new cable comes in.

Spent the afternoon rigging the boat:

• boom
• vang
• halyards
• mainsheet
• traveller 

Just need to tighten up the shrouds for tomorrow night.
