Yesterday she cleaned my shoes and they look brand new, so she approved the order of black shoes to be worn in the winter and in the rain. Pretty stoked.

So, this was why my electrician was having such trouble pulling cable up my mast. Someone rove the topping lift through the wire conduit when the boat was commissioned by the freshman class at the culinary institute. None of us can figure out how they did it.

My friend with the McLaren plays golf on non-bike days. I think he is a serious golfer, but he is not a doosh.

I've done the halyard run before. It's not too bad. I attached the chain to a length of thin line such as 3/16 for a leader line, and then run the halyard. Helps a lot to put the other halyards and lines under tension so they are taught and not easily twisted around your new halyard. Usually you can feel if the new one is fouling the existing halyards. Good luck!
I have not run wire down the conduit. Will that be a challenge once the TL is properly routed? Last boat I did away with the boom topping lift and just used the vang to hold up the boom. Hated the TL always flopping around the main roach.
