Sjogin’s mast was stepped yesterday after far too long. Â I forgot the customary 1985 Bahamian quarter with a local sloop on one face. Â A quarter was used yesterday with her traditional coin to be slipped under the mast today. Â That should please Poseidon.
Looks like I managed to label the shrouds and stays correctly as everything seems to fit. Â The rigging will settle down over time and especially after a few sails. Â (Sailing, what a concept.)
Here are a few pics from yesterday:

Thanks all for your patience over the years with my slow posting pace. Â These new tools will hopefully shorten the publishing schedule. Â We’ll see.
Awesome! Looking good! Can’t wait to see pictures under sail! I am so happy for you that Sjogin is back in great form!
Thanks Byron. Hope to have that first sail next week.
Congrats. One small step for man… one giant step for Sjogin.
Such wonderful news! Well done! This made my day. I hope you get out on Sjogin soon and enjoy your first sail of the year on her.
Hello, I`m from Uruguay, and in my country we don`t have wooden boats so traditionals and beautiful like Sjogin. Congratulations and wave trade winds !
