Test fitting 4 new sails on massively updated 50 year old mast #Rigging #BoatRefit #DIY

At last we have been able to test fit our 4 new sails from Crusader Sails. New Yankee, Staysail, Storm Jib and Fully battened Mainsail. All onto our massively upgraded 50 year olfd mast with all new diy dyneema rigging, constrictors etc. Link to the blog post about the Sail Plan https://www.sustainablesailing.net/our-desired-long-term-sail-plan/ We are now living aboard our Rival 38 Centre Cockpit full-time while finishing a refit so we can launch ASAP. We have a frequently updated blog at https://sustainablesailing.net with membership options and a weekly newsletter at £2 per month for Early Bird Supporters. Our free Sustainable Sailing book is at: https://sustainablesailing.codeberg.page/ Or visit our shop at https://sustainablesailing.teemill.com/ for great hoodies, t-shirts and bags. When we bought Vida in August 2019 she was in a very tired and damp condition with all original equipment and fittings (much of it not working). We have removed all the gas, diesel and paraffin equipment, and are installing all-electric (motor, cooking etc).
