[Alberg30] standing rigging, and hatches

[Alfredo]

Hello Matthew, when it comes to rigging few people are as torough as
Brian Toss. http://www.briontoss.com/ He’s got a video that is a jewl
of information. 
Also, I’ve got a rigging inspection sheet that I compiled from notes
obtained from FreeSpirit’s rebuilder and previous owner Brian Timmins. 
You can find it here. >>

While you’re at it, make sure to check the chain plates and its bolts.

GoodLuck,
Alfredo
