Sails up on the new rig for the first time

DY171 is almost ready to sail again, I put a set of sails up on the new masts for the first time yesterday. These sails have been kindly lent to me while DY171s new set are on order allowing me to provisionally place the gennoa tracks (these may need fine adjustment once the boat starts racing) and adjust the length of the halyard and fly away pole line. The missen sheeting system is also finished and working correctly!


All I need to do now is finish putting the toe straps on and she will be ready for her first sail after her refit. (lots more small tweaks to add before competitive racing).







Happy Sailing,

Rich
