Hoist the sails from cookpit

Two new blocks beside the mast make it easy too handle the mainsail and the jib from cookpit. Now I can sail the boat myself without leaving the cookpit.

At last boat in the water

Not so easy that I thought. Had too loose the trailer from the car and let it out in the water to get the boat floating by it self.
The whole family plus my father and mother helped me to get the boat in the water, finally in late juli 2011.

The mast

Make it easy and save time! I use tie-strap.

A new lanterna mounted on the mast.

New lines for mainsail and jib. A small line to hold the boom.

A picture of my rudder

A picture of my rudder for your eyes Jacques. I think and belive that this rudder is original.

Apologies

My apologies to those who asked me questions on the blog.
I've now answered the questions "Better late than never" :-)

Refurbishment

The (almost) finally result of the refurbishment of the Alacrity 19 cabin.
The below picture is at one of the two new pulpits in the stern. One to mount the stern lanterna on and one to hold the life preserver. Can also be used to arrange a form of rudder lock.

Rudder problem

When I mounted the rudder, I discovered that it was skewed. Now I placed the rudder ina water barrel with the hope that it will straighten itself out.
