I would point out there is an online vid [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lz3hbRmy-7w[/url] I sorta based this method on.  The difference in my method and the one in the vid is the guy in the vid is a 6'4" 250lb off shore oil worker with the strength to do things my old tired body can't; which is why I need the help of a friend.  But it shows how helpful a ladder can be in raising a mast.  It also shows how a well designed system of stays and trap lines makes things a lot easier and safer.

The point is that for me at least sailing was the easy part, getting the boat rigged and off the trailer and into the water was the hard part.[/quote]

I resent the oil worker comment.  Im a towboat captain and only weight 235 lbs at 6-5.  LOL  Its all good.  you got any questions on the system that im using give me a call.  shoot me a PM for info[/quote]

Well I am 73 years old so I blame my old tired eyes and Alzheimer’s disease; not to mention my poor keyboard skills for the error.

I really like the system you have and the Colligo Marine stuff.  That is definitely a great idea.  Truth be told I may be putting that rigging on my big boat.  Still trying to get it ready to sail it to the Bahamas after the first of the year and my Prindle is on the second burner now.
