No it is still in existance, it would need a bit of cleaning up before use but I think it is still OK

Hi Phil,

What is the situation of this mould now? Did it lose a fight to a chainsaw quicker than you can say 'Black&Decker'?

Thank you everyone for such an amazing day!! Evan had so much fun and loved learning from you all [emoji7]
So many photos to share (I’ll send on WhatsApp), but I can’t thank team sticky weekend enough for everything you did for us and the mast. Can’t wait to get it back up and on the water with its new mast foot and repaired spreader

Tech Chat / Re: Top spreaders

I went the other way with Green bananas and went a single spreader route with higher shroud/forestay locations to give the top mast support.

Did end up having a forestay proddder to stop forestay sag.

It has enabled me to adjust the rig on the water by simply winding in the shrouds as wind increases inducing more bend and tighter forestay.

But I know I’m an out layer with this rig setup.
