Masts and things

New halyards and sheets for the Springtide. Made slip arrangements as well. Have been planing down the Amanda Louise mast out of a solid 4X4. I made one attempt with Wooden Boat Works' instructions for cutting the Peapod mast, but found it was too difficult to get the equal angles with a table saw. Ended up using the instructions found here. While I made an honest go with a hand plane, I ended up using the power planer in the end, and it went pretty smoothly.
