Anyone winch me up my mast in Brightlingsea marina please?

[FullCircle]

I need to remove the Wind masthead unit and clean up my VHF cable joint. Anyone got a couple of hours spare to help?

Suitable payment in beer wine and food.....


Thanks


Jim

Hiya Jim, when?

Careful Jim, you've asked for somebody to winch you up but you haven't specified that they've got to hang around and let you down again

Will be there in a couple of days, if that helps?

That's a pity, I was in there last week for a couple of days in company with another boat. On the other hand it was flipping windy so you might not have wanted to go up.....

I'm planning to be up there some time over the weekend, probably tomorrow. Also, I have one of those top-climber things that you're welcome to borrow.

If you think I'm going to volunteer to do any winching on your boat after you conned me into winding up the keel you are sadly mistaken.

Ramsgate...happy days.

I live in Wivenhoe so could help you Monday morning if that's any use - I'm tied up this weekend, unfortunately

Thanks all. Captain Champagne Murphy sped to the rescue but in vain. Looks like replacement wind transducer required. Still, managed to clean up the masthead VHF connection.

Was a bit breezy but not too bad.

Burst a few vains winding, certainly

We did offer the splendid wimp winch.... But you went for the genuine Harken proper chrome job. Mans handle that.

Big bastard that Jim lad.
