New design for the radar pole
03 08, 16
Yesterday I met with Keith at KATO to review their design for bracing the attachments on my radar pole. The design looks good. Jupiter approved the expenditure and I expect the work to be done in two or three weeks. I've started grinding down the bolt that sheered off in the ocean. Down to about 1/16 of an inch, I'll do a little more grinding on Thursday and then I have to polish the damaged areas of the pole so they will not rust. It will be nice to have to pole platform installed and all of the gear put back up. Last week was so hot that I didn't continue varnishing. I'll pick that up again if the temps stay moderate. I've been unloading storage and getting things back on the boat after the A2B race. Going okay for now.
Still have to pull the main sail down for some work.
