I like all the lines the rigging is making...fab contrast against that wonderful blue sky

The workers have almost as much rigging as the ship.

They are brave to get up there. Really interesting to see. V

An action caught and rarely seen.

Very nice capture of the work at hand looks like they are following safety rules as they work on this ship. Nice sharp image and a warm working temperature need some of that here on the east coast. Vote

Love geometry of the lines and chains. Just the right perspective for this excellent shot. Summer temp in February too. V

loads of lines form myriad geometric shapes, and the jib crew further enliven the scene...your temps are certainly climbing high for the season..

That looks like a lot of sail. V
