Update: Rigging dates confirmed

Ropetek has confirmed the re-rigging can begin the week of June 26th and is 'estimated' to take about two weeks. She'll remain without a gaff for now as I'd like to take this one step at a time but it will be good to have sturdy traditional rigging nonetheless. Once the rigging is fit, she'll be taken out along the coast of Nelson for a day test run to pull the slack out of the new rigging, retightened, and then prepared for sailing to Wellington.

Update (15-June): Ropetek has been able to bring the re-rigging dates forward by two weeks, work is to start this weekend and is estimated to take three to four days.
