Valkyrie's Mast

Finally the bamboo mast is in place and rigged... sort of. There are still many temporary lines in place of the wire rigging that will be permanent. This is the first time that all of the major components for Valkyrie have been in place. A few days ago I got hold of a mizzen sail off a 45 footer. I have already modified the sail to fit Valkyrie, and after a little more tweaking of the rig, it will be time to hoist and get underway! I'm sure a lot of tuning will be required...
