thanks a lot guys!

no, they were not pinned. i'll make sure they are before sailing again. nonetheless, i will survey the rig as a whole. it's scary to think that the mast is moving below deck. even more, figure out why did it move. at least, the chainplates are new (changed both on Feb 2006).

you have been of great help. i appreciate your time.

hey! in Puerto Rico we have a few activities setup for the winter. if any of you happen to be around and feel like racing PHRF (we don't have a J-30 fleet yet) feel free to write.
