Cosa tratta questo video

Kent Blair maintains the rigging on a 1980 Drascombe Lugger named ONKAHYE, focusing on the gaff arm and mast configuration.Watch To prevent the gaff from snagging during mast raising, he installs parrel beads at the boom jaw and along the sail eyelets. These beads keep the gaff arm positioned closely against the mast. He also adds a 3mm dummy cord at the masthead to secure swage eyes, ensuring they remain below the mast collar during transit and setup. The gaff arm features a quick-disconnect barrel tab, allowing for rapid removal when clearing low bridges. When stepping the mast, all parrel beads must remain on the top side of the mast thwart to avoid interference with the gaff movement. Failure to position these beads correctly requires unrigging the entire assembly to clear the obstruction.
