Katherine Going up the Mast to take a Measurement (for a part we were later unable to get)

I asked Katherine if she was nervous being up the mast, or if heights scared her, and she said no, she was just worried about Craig and Adrian dropping her (they were belaying).  Craig said, speaking from experience, that it's not the fall that hurts, but the sudden stop at the end.  Sorry the video is sideways, I have no way to rotate it.

She was measuring for the main halyard sheave, so we could replace the halyard with the proper dimension line. We later found out it had to be custom made, and not available before we need to leave Des Moines, so that is an item that will have to wait to be replaced.
