Allen has been working his patooty off on dozens of projects...the one he seems to be most proud of is preparing our ratlines for assembly...these lovingly varnished pieces of wood will soon be transformed into a bad-ass pirate-style rope ladder hanging from our rig.....the theory being that if we ever actually get our butts out of Bocas and head for San Blas, we will be able to scramble up the ladder to watch out for scary reefs that want to take a bite out of our hull.
Thanks again Timmy for scoring us this gorgeoous, probably-endangered-and-illegal, amazing hardwood from Costa Rica....funny that it took us like five months to find time to make these.
