At the pointy end.........





The bow sprit emerges from the saw dust and looks great. You can see clearly the 2nd bow roller in place to support the anchor. This, I hope will save me doing a dance on the widow maker when the hook decides to run amok.


The cranse iron fits well and the various stays are fitted. The nice thing about the bowsprit is that it moves all the forces forward and enhances windward performance. Of course the pulpit can now be fitted and we already checked that, so more stuff coming together, however it almost seems that the closer you get to completion the more things there are to do.
