My Ship Has Come In (Figuratively Speaking)

Rick arrived and with him came the package of equipment  for the trysail halyard from San Diego.

Goodies from San Diego

To the left of the photo is the shackle by which the peak of the sail will be lifted.  Below that are the cheek block and pad, which is used to deal with the curved surface of the mast.  To the right is 176 ft of line.  Part of it will make up the new trysail halyard and the majority of it will be used to replace the main halyard. 

Four people on both sides of the border put this together on short notice and I am grateful to all of them.
