Limmershin has various additional features: > The guard wires have gates port and starboard which means no jumping over them when coming alongside or when moored up.> There is a spray hood from which the old canvas could be used as a template to re-cover the frame. > There is a small inflatable tender (no engine) and it may need a bit of attention.> Various mooring lines and spare rope. Sails: > Apart from the new sails there is one other serviceable set and a spinnaker. > The ropes and blocks are all available.> The second main has been reduced in size to the first reef on purpose and is a loose-footed sail now.

> This was done because the Super Seal is a bit tender above force 4 and by a force 5 the first reef is very advisable.> The logic behind the cut down main is if the weather forecast includes a 5 or above it is not useful to over stretch a new main and the cut down main can be hoisted instead. The work was done professionally by Saunders.
