Cosa tratta questo video
The restoration of the wooden sailing vessel Tally Ho reaches a milestone as the crew steps the mast for the first time in decades.8:17 This initial installation serves as a temporary fit to measure the standing rigging before final assembly.0:39 The project utilizes a modern heat-set Dyneema standing rig rather than traditional galvanized steel or stainless steel wire.4:51 This synthetic fiber offers high strength-to-weight ratios, which helps maintain the vessel's original sailing characteristics by lowering the center of gravity.4:28 To mitigate vulnerabilities to ultraviolet light and chafe, the crew parcels and serves the entire rig.5:15 This approach allows for traditional hand-splicing techniques while eliminating the need for heavy swaging equipment.6:52 Beyond the mast, the crew installs the upper stem band and permanently beds the cap rails to protect the stanchion heads.11:03 Future tasks include fitting the spreaders and completing interior joinery before the final mast stepping.16:51
