I already built the front trailer hitch for my van, for parking Dragonfly (1995 26S) under her canopy in the driveway. Now the big mod I’m working on is a new mast raising system. It will allow me to raise the mast solo, post launch.
I have many smaller projects underway, too, but I expect to work on them throughout the summer. I bought a whisker pole and I need to set that up and learn how to use it. I’m probably going to add a topping lift, too. And I’ve designed and partly fabricated a steering lock system, which I’d like to finish this summer.
I’m also looking for a good way to manage my anchor. Dragonfly came with an anchor mount on the pulpit but, without realizing it, I bought an anchor that doesn’t fit it. So I’m trying to come up with a better way to manage that. All suggestions appreciated!
