Ron visited on Thursday to fit the intermediate (D2) shrouds. The upper photo shows the new stays at the top. Note the open turnbuckles on the new says vs the closed ones on the old ones. Closed turnbuckles are considered obsolete around here. The open ones allow better inspection and avoid the danger of trapped water. The other photo shows Ron at work sewing the leather cover at the end of the cross tree.
My goodness Ron is brave. Doesn't even look like slipping!
