Here we are rigging a reef line while underway. We had swapped the laminate main sail out for the Dacron main sail before leaving the dock, because it was quite windy and the Dacron sail is more robust. But we didn't rig the second reef line properly and had to pull it out in order to raise the sail. So here we are sailing under the first reef, while I climbed onto the boom to re-rig the second reef. I’m wearing a climbing harness attached to the spinnaker halyard for safety.

Could the the International Rule 10-Metre be the most perfect of all the Metric classes? 58 ft/ 18 m of overall length are enough to wow - if RITA IV doesn't already do that by looks - yet handy enough to sail and race with family and friends. http://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/561/william-fife-iii-58ft-international-10-metre-19262015 And RITA IV brings that extra dimension of being a William #fife design, and, what's more, a former Royal #yacht . Rescued from oblivion by a passionate syndicate of died-in-the-wool yacht #racing aficionados and superbly #restored at David Viera and Miguel Ministro's Absolute Yachts, the result is #structurally sound, fair, fast, and a true delight to the eye - in fact the definition of 'Fast and Bonnie'.
