Re-rigging Day 2: Preparation

Captain purchased a new LED Tri-colour Navigation Lamp to replace the existing one before we left Melbourne. So much easier to do the replacement when the top of the mast is at ground level, not 18m up. Today he realises that he will need a special nut to go on the light to hold the wind indicator. Slight panic in case it can't be obtained before next week, but he sources one in Melbourne and they promise to put it in the post immediately. It's over $50 for nut plus Express postage - expensive things boats.
