CW28 ketch. I need to fit a new VHF ANTENNA AND A NASA wind sensor unit.
Got middle son to offer to go up.
Brand new Crewsaver bosuns chair bowlined' to the main halliard. Main led to either the halliard winch on the mast or forward to the anchor capstan. Me doing the work and another person to tail.
Son also wearing his climbing harness that will be attached to the tied off topping lift (10mm) with a prusik or kliemheist (sp?) to act as a safety line.
Son also using a webbing strap around mast and attached to his harness to prevent swinging about whilst trying to drill holes,etc.
Tools in bag etc etc.
Does this sound safe? Anything missing? Any suggestions?
