In an effort to get ahead of schedule on this short duration project, I headed over to the storage yard where Someledi is currently on the hard to remove her standing rigging from the recently pulled mast. The old rigging will serve to assist the rigger, a local family business by the name of Sail Ready Rigging Services, in building out the new wire.

I arrived at Somerledi and knocked out a couple task items for the owner in his prep to have the boat rewired and for some light woodwork in the saloon. Measurements and photos taken, I returned to the mast to begin the removal of the standing wire rigging.

I moved from the top of the mast down, removing forestay and backstay, upper shrouds and lowers. I bundled the individual stays and shrouds up in neat loops, taped and labeled them for the hand off to the rigger next week.

Total Hrs: 3.5
