Unboxing New Rigging: A Step Closer to Smooth Sailing

EP 65 Our Dyneema Rigging arrives! - https://youtu.be/dZ72I38FoU0


Ahoy there, fellow sailors! Today, we're diving into something exciting that just arrived from Colligo Marine. Join me as we unbox and unveil our latest addition to the boat.

Now, I know what you're thinking. Could it be...paper? Well, not quite! Let's crack open these boxes and see what treasures lie within.

Ah, now that's more like it! Replacement rigging for our beloved boat. We're upgrading to all Dyneema rigging, bidding farewell to steel cables and welcoming a whole lot more efficiency and durability aboard.

Check out these beauties! New chain plates, sleek and sturdy, made out of titanium. These babies will hold our upper and lower shrouds together, ensuring our masts stay in shipshape condition.

And what's this? A turnbuckle system, which will make tuning simple. Cotter pins, cutter pins, and fittings galore—all meticulously crafted by Colligo to make our rigging process a breeze.

As we carefully inspect each component, I can't help but appreciate Colligo's attention to detail. From the turnbuckles to the pre-stretched line, they've made rigging maintenance a cinch, saving us from hours of tedious work.

For now, these treasures will remain nestled in their boxes, patiently awaiting the day we're ready to set sail with our new rigging in place. And rest assured, dear viewers, we'll be sure to take you along for the ride when that day comes.

So, if you enjoyed this unboxing adventure, don't forget to like our video, subscribe to our channel for more nautical escapades, and leave us a comment below. Or better yet, join us over on Facebook for some lively discussions.

Until next time, fair winds and smooth sailing!
