Night Exercise

Took her down to the lock at low water and managed to get to the mast head and fix the rigging. Jib halyard had to inside the copper pipe that acts as trunking for the VHF cable, which was on the wrong side so we had to turn her around in the lock and start again.

Also used some wire and insulating tape to make the loops smaller on the back-stays so hopefully they will not fall off.

Pitch black by the time we got back to the pontoon but very pleased with our manoeuvring today.

Also (in the afternoon) fitted ratlines 2/3rds of the way up in case we need to get up there again.
