Guest Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 He was probably off to get another ladder to change the masthead light... Link to post Share on other sites
Murky 1 Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 He was probably off to get another ladder to change the masthead light... You really need a beer crate, a phone book and a swivelling office chair to get that final bit of height. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Rocket Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Looks impressive to me - so long as his ladder feet are well planted and his knots are all good I think he has done well... Link to post Share on other sites
floatsome 0 Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 I would like to see the video of the "build", come to think of it best check my ladder is still in the garage. Classic. Link to post Share on other sites
Fish 0 Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Hope he thought to put something under the feet of the ladder so he doesn't mark the cabin top. Link to post Share on other sites
Fish 0 Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 PS, Where was he? hadn't fallen off with the third ladder floating around under the boat? Link to post Share on other sites

DrWatson 374 Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Awesome! But i think for proper OSH approval he has to tie the top of the ladder to the mast before he climbs it... Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Bit of an opportunity for supplying a rope ladder there Knot Me! Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 saw that up in Denarau one year, was going to see if i could help the guy, but he was actually hauling the lader up on the main halyard, and then attaching the second ladder the bottom legs of which were not on the deck, he tied the ladder off to the mast with a couple of sail ties in a few places..

Guest Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Errrrr... BooBoo, those ladders are only rated to one hundy kilos, so who were you planning on sending up there? Obviously not yourself. Or were you thinking; 2 x one hundy kilo ladders = two hundy weight limit? Link to post Share on other sites

B00B00 310 Posted August 25, 2011 Author Share Posted August 25, 2011 O'reilly, even if the ladders could handle it, I doubt there would be enough stability to hold me up there! You need to focus on you sailboat tournament anyway mate. Link to post Share on other sites
