Progress at last!

This has been a great couple weeks. Last week I finished my temp rudder and got it installed. Tonight I moved my mast from the side yard to the Tranquil Chaos and erected it. This is probably the first time this mast has been up since the late 1980's!
The challenge was moving the mast. Some have given me a hard time for simply muscling it around. Well, I had a heart attach 3 weeks ago so I'm being more careful. Here's how I did it.

You can also see the temp wood rudder I built after being buffalloed by the foam & glass one. Unfortunately it was too dark for pictures by the time the mast was erected. Those will come tomorrow!
