Today the rig for Vertigo arrived. It is a carbon fiber Melges 24 mast that had been on an Express 27. The owner was making his boat stock again to race one design in the bay area and was looking to unload this one. It is pretty much the complete rig with spreaders, mast step, tapered carbon boom, nearly new stainless standing rigging, and 2 dacron mainsails that are in pretty good condition. So now it's probably time that I get sanding on my boat so that I can use this cool rig someday! I also learned today that my friend Doug,who works at the local boat yard, has laid claim to some stainless stancions, bow pulpit, and lifelines that he's going to send my way. Thanks Doug!
