We’ve had a “minor setback”! Looks like the top spreader bracket decided to hold on just until reaching the dock in Lymington. It’s now broken in two pieces. Fortunately I have a spare and we’ve just come back from picking up the van in France, and have brought the spare bracket with us on the overnight ferry. It’s going to be a massive push to pull the rig off of the boat, remove the two brackets and sleeve on the new one, but Andrew has prepped everything and we should be good to start work as soon as I get there!

Good luck with the repair. Hey, if it was easy, everyone would be doing it!
