[quote=sierracat]Hiya all,
If you have been following this, then the latest is that the tramp has been restitched (fingers crossed) and installed on the boat. The trailer is finished, except for lights, and the front upright for the mast (the rear upright is finished, and pivots down for boat unloading). Still need to paint my welds. Also need to remove what's left of the ancient hiking straps and install new ones (line through eyelets, with pipe insulation foam wrapped around them). Also had the upholstery guy make a simple pocket on the front of the tramp (the white thing in the pic) with a velcro closure, for stashing the main halyard and the righting line.

I've committed to making this a boom rig (given the sail is an early 18sq and was made to have one) and because of the angle I chose for the rear beam/traveller, and the eyelet positions for the tramp lacing. No going back now. Boom is the last project on the list.
Working on the rudders right now. That's a whole other story. I'll start a new thread then post the link here.
