Kismet on Lake Victoria

We were fortunate that we were able to meet with Peter from the Trailer Sailer Place forum while in Paynesville. Peter and crew motored out to meet us and took some pictures (unbeknownst to us) while we were sailing.

That slack near the foot of the main sail, I found later to be caused by the way the main halyard cheek block (pulley at the top of the mast) had been riveted on. Two of the four rivets are within a few millimetres of the sail track preventing the bolt rope from sliding up further. To Be Fixed...

(Later edit: I am now sure it's NOT the rivets - just the bolt rope getting stuck in the mast track. I've purchased some McLube dry silicone spray. I'll clean the slot then lube it - and the main next time it's up.)
(Later, later edit: The McLube fixed the main going all the way up the slot.)
