Drascombe Lugger and Dabber Centreplate Uphaul

16 Nov 17:

We bought a Dabber recentl and the centreplate uphaul rigging was missing. So we referenced our Lugger to order some blocks and line. Not sure if this is the factory rigging, but this configuration has worked in our Lugger ONKAHYE for over 25 years.




We ordered blocks with swivels vs fixed ends, hopefully we'll have the same results. Otherwise we can go with the exact twist shackle set up as the Lugger. We ordered both the New England Ropes Vintage line and Tufnol blocks from R&W Ropes.




Float Test next!
