We ran into a small squall the other day on the Chesapeake. Unfortunately we tore the leech line on the main (its a pretty old sail) and it wrapped around the topping lift which required me to cut the line in order to get the sail down. So, long story short, we had to get to the line that was cut and unwrap it from the topping lift. We also lost the halyard for our radar reflector and had to retrieve it from the spreader. So what do you do on our boat when you need to get up into the rigging? You call in the bosun's chair crew and put them to work. Here are a couple of shots of the kids working up high. They're light and a delight to haul up, and they love it.
