Sharing a whole folder requires an email from the person you want to share it with...and they have to have dropbox as well. So prob just a link to the pic is the only way to go in here. If you find diff let me know, would be cool to see whole folders! Jazz On Mar 1, 2016 9:47 AM, "George Iemmolo" <griemmolo2@gmail.com> wrote:

Your link opened up my Dropbox with all its files. To the left there was a share link that indicates the ability to make any file available to others to view or add pics. I opened my Montgomery folder and it has a share button at the right top. Still have not figured out how to make it available to the group

://www.dropbox.com/home?preview=flooding%2C+boat+rigging+010.JPGHey, Jazz, Downloaded Dropbox today. Have been fiddling with it since. Have gone through my pics and put a bunch in my Dropbox but still not sure how to share them. Well, that's the first attempt. Should show a garage roof shot of the Monty.

Tom did you ever get dropbox going? I'd love to see pictures of your boat details. We should have a boat tour from everyone! I've never even seen another Monty. Not only that, this is the first "real" sailboat I've ever had a chance to look at so closely so I'm sort of like the blind man inspecting an elephant.
It has been raining everyday and very still here so I'm just waiting for a good day to go when all the stars align. I know El Nino is totally ready to go, just details now.

A word of advice, don't wait until the list is done to go sailing. It never will be done, you will never go sailingš©. I looked at your image again and it also reminded me of some sort of tabernacle for a very large mast. The wooden mast wound have to have a cross tang to catch the uprights on your deck post though or it would just swing through and land on your car roof. Also the position would be for a cat rig. An interesting contraption. Maybe there is a maker stamp on the bottom of it that would point to its original intended use. Perhaps it has nothing to do with sailing and some shade tree tinkerer thought it would repurpose just right where it is. "Curiouser and curiouser", said Alice.

Jazz, Pull off the existing samson post and check the bolt holes against those of a 6 inch hershoff deck cleat aimed fore and aft. If the holes are widely separated use the standard drill out and fill with epoxy trick. If the cleat holes are close to the existing holes you may be able to reuse the holes and not have to drill new ones. I have some 1/8 inch ss plate so would make two identical plates one for inside, one for outside and drill holes to match the existing. I would then bolt the cleat to the top plate. No new holes, nice big pads top and bottom to spread the load on a balsa cored deck. Have fun. Tom B
