    it does sboat55, but I have a bit of experience now , and doing things in the right order helps , and a bit of patience too . these are the tools I use , mainly the smaller ones , but if I have to use two hands , the bigger ones come into it .

    I finally got the fore main sail on . couldn't believe , what I did . had the sail almost on , when I realised that I had sewn the sail on the yard wrong . the top pic shows it well . just off of centre on the right hand side , the two clue blocks are on one side on the left , the other side , had to take the whole $%$#$ thing off and adjust it . it's only on loosely at the moment ,still playing with it .
