While the mast was being re-stepped onboard Tenaz in the big lifting pit, at the other end of the yard the rest of the RSB Rig Pro team were maneuvering the twin headstays and inner forestay beside the 65 meter mast from Red Dragon.

The new Future Fibre PBO cables have been fitted into the carbon foils and with the use of 3 truck cranes and a large number of lifting slings these stays were lifted and positioned on the mast where they were pinned in preparation for the re-stepping procedure later this week.
