This is first time we raised the chute on the tempest.  We were both surprised that it didn't turn to dust as it appears to be pretty old.  I'm not sure how it was originally supposed to be raised, as the original masthead assembly didn't have a spinnaker halyard.


Note the new hatch cover. And note that the jib sheet is already stuck under it.
