Rig Boat and kicker upgrade

An early start to get parked up as it was going to be a sunny warm day.

rigged boat ready so that i could see the kicker in the correct place, i removed the first part and boom strop.

replaced with a new 60mm loop and 240mm loop and placed under the eylet after eventually borrowing a philips screwdriver.

i had 2 harken 29mm blocks spliced already, as it was easier to pratice at home. all i knew was all 3 ropes had to go around the mast and be spliced.

i had done 2 but couldnt work out how to do the third, eventually i tried it as a 16/1 and it worked fine. when i got ho9me i watched the vid again and worked what i had done wrong

i am more confident rigging the boat now , its all pratice , but it all works now. only had the boat since Feb 2020 lol
