Scrub a dub dub

Gave Scarlette coat #1 of the Hawaiian Two-Step Process again. Weather has been crappy here for the last several days, so can't really start something without having to stop a bazillion times.

Was also able to get a hold of Mark to see if he can take a look at the engine. Icky was too busy with a bigger repair. Mark said he'd take a look if he was feeling better.

Ok..There I was...

Had to change out the lower standing rigging. That the wires on the side that helps hold the mast steady. The lower rigging isn't as high as the upper rigging. Duh...

Anyway, to put this lower rigging on I had to loosen the wire that helps hold the mast, then climb up the ladder and remove and replace the wire then tighten the wire back up. And it had to be done to both sides.

Thanks to Delane I was able to quickly add this part without further delay of the launch because of the mail.

I tied off the ladder to the mast with bungee cords then climbed up this ladder. Just kept remembering not to look down.
