Up the stick pictures

[uncledom]

Doesn't count when it's flat calm. Post one of you aloft in a gale! lol

Funny story, so I'm up the stick to drop a new halyard soldier line to pull in the new spinnaker halyard I bought. Anchored in North Port Bay in a place known as the Sand City Anchorage, you can find it on Active Captain it's just east of Hobart Beach Park. Power boater is interested to come take pics so comes flying up to the boat which of course rocks the hell out of us and I'm hanging on for dear life for two minutes till it calms down. It was one of the rare occasions where I didn't let the obscenities rip, kids on board. And up comes the Harbor Master and had that guy sweating for 45 minutes. God bless that man.

Sounds like every day at the mooring field where I am. Just off the main channel of the Okechobee Waterway and boats big and small do not care at all about the no wake zone. HANG ON!

First time up the mast on my new-to-me Beneteau 373 this spring... A selfie after some Anti-bird efforts.

So @ToddS am I to understand you went up the pole to chase Bird’s away? How did that go? Sure got a great image.

Not the OP's desired perspective, but here's the admiral enjoying her first time up the mast.

Installing a halyard restrainer.

@IH82BL8 For a guy who looks like he is hanging on for dear life there sure are a lot of "Looking around" photos.
One might almost think you were enjoying the view.

If I climbed up my H25 mast, she would probably tip over so I hoist a camera into a bracket at the top.
