Most sailors take their equipment maintenance very seriously. I know I do.
One place that's infrequently visited is the masthead, and I'm wondering
if
you have any pictures of this vital area of your standing rigging. The
last
time I had someone go aloft (sorry, I'm not interested), I forgot to give
her a camera, so all I have are these pics from the ground:

(Everything was fine or was when she left, and no, I'm not the guy in the
picture.)
Do you have pictures of your masthead hardware (not scenery, but the
actual
masthead)? How do you know your sheaves are still in good shape? Do you
regularly lubricate them?
