Re: Jochems tabernacle winch

Sorry Mike but SAPPHIRE doesn't have them..and if I recall the photos
I've seen of Bjorn Harbo's ESMERALDA and Richard Stover's TRIMARA;
they don't either...Maybe they'll chime in..Far as I know, these are
still the only 3 complete Jochems Schooners around???

The plans set show the winches mounted on the tabernacle opposite
side of the mast opening...with a slotted hole in the tabernacle to
route the cable directly through it to the mast.

I have heavy eye rings on SAPPHIRE and use a 4:1 boom vang setup as a
safety for my wife to gather in as I lift the mast manually. It's not
too heavy, but then again I don't trailer her frequently..

Howdy-

Would one of you Jochems Schooner owners be kind enough to take some photos of the
worm gear winch setup on your masts? I bought a worm gear winch and want to mount it to
use to raise my Martha Jane mast. I also want to see how you attached the wire to the mast.

Post the photos or email them to me - whichever is more convenient for you.

Thanks.
