Re: Crossbeam!!!!!

So happy for you that you’ve got your (sexy) fibre chainplates done and so soon after your crossbeam end fittings done! Mount that beam with moderate martingale stay tension (not full tension until you have your mast up and cap stays tensioned) and drool that you’ve got somewhere to attach your forestay!! Great progress after all the pain you’ve gone through.

Oh yeah, that’s a good point! No need to counteract the load of a “not yet in place “ forestay.

Thanks! It’s getting exciting now!
