At the boat on Saturday and watched a fellow Hunter 33 putting on his sails after just launching a week ago. After watching him semi-struggle with the head sail onto the furler, I offered to lend a hand with the main since I was also very familiar how it was rigged having the identical boat.
About halfway up with him cranking, ( did I mention it was close to 100 deg. with humidex ? ) he looks up and asks if I'm putting the luff rope in the furler ( in-mast furling )
I had put the luff rope into the spare track on the mast by mstake ..... Oh well, at least we got it right the second time...
I think he also doubted I would post this on the forum.....
