I checked in on Seaknots a while ago. Not much activity back then.

The mast mate looks nice, but did you notice how awkward his climbing
goes? He can’t place his boots very well in the steps because of the
large circumference of the mast. And he doesn’t show what he does with
his safety belt when he hits the spreaders. Of course we don’t have
this problem of spreaders.

Awkward ! I’ll say! And they didn’t show anyone tending the slack on the halyard either, slip out of the steps and you plummet to boom level with only a straight climbing strap. They would better have a prusic knotted strap around the spar to catch him when he misses a step on the way back down.“michel.capel” <michel.capel@…> wrote: I checked in on Seaknots a while ago.
