    Cancelled, the money for our unit has come through. So business before pleasure. At least the boat is all packed up and ready to go.

    Spent the day doing minor tweaks. Still a way to go, but I need to be on the water to sort them. A nice little breeze gave me the chance to realise i can reef the sail from the helm. Something that is good to know. Friday is still the day.

    There was no reason not to, so I glued it in today.

    Another and hopefully final test fit tomorrow. All going well I plan to have it glued in over the weekend.

    My design for a tabernacle mount. I know the plan view should be top left...the brain forgot. 

    I will weld it to the top of the mast support tube flush with the deck.

    Just got quoted a $1,000 to make it, it looks like I'm building a timber one. Which should cost me almost...nothing.

    My sail is coming together nicely, I actually think I might be up for a test sail next week.

    I've started rigging the sail. Plugs for alloy battens and the yard sorted out. The line that looks like a forestay is actually holding the masthead halyard block in place. It's an idea I'm working on to make rigging at the boat ramp easier. There was a bit of head scratching with the yard. I haven't rigged a JR from scratch in around ten years...or more.

    II'm going to use the present mast to sort out the rig, But I'm thinking if I can I will modify the the original mast to replace it.
