2012-2013: Work on Magic


The re-fit work continued during the 2012-2013 season.  This season we focused on a complete re-rigging of the boat.  We worked with a professional rigger, imported all the rig bits & parts from Swendsen's Rig Shop (Alameda, CA), and pulled the mast.  A HUGE job....but no more microscopic cracks!
