Hva denne videoen dekker

The owners of a Cape George Cutter 36 assemble and install new roller furlers while the boat is in a Canadian boatyard.0:29 They source the components from Ocean Rigging and Hydraulics, pre-cutting the forestay to length and assembling the aluminum foil extrusions on the ground.1:07 The assembly process involves loading plastic sleeves onto the wire to isolate the aluminum from the stainless steel and securing the connector pieces with rivets and set screws.3:31

The installation requires hoisting the assembled 50-foot unit up the mast to attach the forestay pin.13:16 The initial attempt fails because the owner mistakenly attempts to connect a U-strap toggle to an existing U-strap on the mast.20:09 After removing the redundant hardware, the installation succeeds.22:05 The crew concludes that while they successfully installed the furlers to facilitate sail measurements, the remaining standing rigging work—involving eight shrouds—will be more safely and efficiently completed by unstepping the mast.24:46
