Installing stanchions (hammock cranes) and saftey ropes.


Stanchions and saftey ropes around quarterdeck. Stern cap rail.


Stanchions and saftey ropes around midships. Includes saftey chains above hull ladders.


A new crew member has transferred in. He likes to yell a lot..


I decided to extend the saftey stanchions & rope across the stern.
Wouldn't want anyone falling over & being left behind.


In the process of painting 'ol Agamemnon for the figurehead.
Slow & tedious!! Not sure about the colours??


Starting work on the bowsprit.


'Ol Agamemnon temporarily installed for fit.


Bowsprit assembled and ready for finishing.


I must be having a senior's moment. I'm getting confused with all the threads.


Bowsprit & figurehead installed. Agamemnon's spear will come later.


Progress after 5½ months in 2015.


Starting to run some of the lines.


Working on the lower foremast top plate.


All appropriate blocks attached to bottom of plate.


I had visitors this afternoon. Note the mule deer outside the window.


I managed to install the foremast today.


Hooking up the stays for the foremast.
