Rerigging

The rerigging of the family sloop, put off by the floods on Lake Travis, is back on for Wednesday. Meanwhile the marina that has the service has changed hands and is now the Sail & Ski Yacht Club. Looks like it will be an all-day affair. If I can get there by 9 a.m., the rigger thinks he can be done with the standing (wire) rigging by 3 p.m. I’ll have to put off replacing the frayed running rigging until later, possibly in the fall. But the wire is the important part. It holds the mast up. Weather looks cooperative so far. Only slight chances of rain all week, tho the temps will be climbing into the mid-90s, where they usually are in July.
