Qué cubre este vídeo

Garrett and Ruth continue the rigging and installation of the mizzen mast on their custom-built boat. To simplify the mizzen rigging, Garrett uses 3/8-inch wire for the shrouds, opting for two continuous runs that loop around the hounds rather than four individual eyes.6:25 This approach utilizes the existing 3/8-inch swaging tools and hardware already on hand for the main mast.7:21 The crew measures and cuts 50 feet and 6 inches of wire, marking the center to create two 28-inch eyes.11:47 Garrett carves the base of the mizzen mast by transferring bevel measurements from the mast step to ensure a precise fit.13:37 He permanently installs the mast step into the keelson using 5200 sealant after exhausting his supply of tar.19:06 Additional tasks include applying multiple coats of paint to the mast and touching up the bulwark stanchions.1:39 The project remains ongoing, with remaining work including cutting the deck hole, building a wood collar, and installing rigging hardware.20:33
