[alberg30] masthead

[Peter Amos]

I would like to see a good resolution closeup photograph of the masthead and masthead rigging connections of an A30.Is there a site with one,or does anyone have one they could e-mail? I looked at my own recently through binoculars. The upper shrouds were run through holes in tangs attached to the mast, folded over and clamped with Nicopress fittings. The backstay was folded over a bolt through the masthead fitting and again clamped to itself with a Nicopress.I'm no expert on rigging but this seems unusual.
The lowers were connected to their tangs with swaged forks which is more conventional.
