Met with Peter this morning to get familiar with the inside of the spar before the final glue ups close it in for good.  This business of balancing wire runs and halyards seems to be working out very well.  We have managed at the 11th hour to sneak some tails inside the spar for their trips down the mast.  Reducing windage and the confusion of looking aloft at a maze of external rope.  Running inside the mast will be large wires for the VHF and lightning protection, and small wires for B&G, and lights.

Spreaders are looking beautiful.  The last one was being shaped this morning.

The Main and Mizzen booms and the mizzen mast are in varnish, ready for hardware.
