Hampidjan Dyneema Dux Stays

A few more jobs checked off the list.
Some nice work from Mike at Strongrope Rigging to make up some aft backstays, runners, checkstays and inner forestay. The Dyneema Dux is covered with dyneema silver-grey braid to minimise chaffe and prolong life of the stays. All stays are lashed to the past fittings and terminate to one running backstay trim line. The checkstays have a low friction ring s to accommodate the stay deflectors. The inner forestay has a Colligo lower fitting for deck tensioning.
