Here it is...
In the process of being rigged for the first time since the 1980's. The next step is to get it wet and see if I can sail her.
Had to spend a few dollars on the wing tramps to replace corroded or missing eyelets, new ropes and stay wire before it all came together. I figured that as long as it's my brother's boat he can pay me back, and he did.
The sail looks good and should make a big difference to the previous Garry Fogg sails it wore when first launched. I only discovered one problem, the skiff was never issued with a sailing number, thus it sports AUS 9369 which is confusing considering it was built in 1985. Oh well, let's go sailing.
