SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Cut the lengths of thread that will

become the mainmast shrouds (137).

Pass each shroud up through the

maintop, between the mainmast and

main topmast, and then back down

through the maintop. Adjust the

shrouds until they are positioned at

equal lengths on either side of the mast,

then apply glue to the points where

they rest on the chock of the maintop

to prevent them from moving.

Tie the end of one of the shrouds

around a 5mm deadeye (F). Apply

glue to the shroud to fix the deadeye

in position and cut away the excess.

Wrap some 0.1mm thread around the

doubled section of shroud above the

deadeye. Following the same process

as on the foremast, connect the two

deadeyes with a lanyard (135).

Prepare and rig the mizzenmast shrouds

(138), following the same process as for

the foremast and mainmast.

Continue rigging the mainmast shrouds.

Remember to use only 5mm deadeyes

and to connect them only to the 5mm

deadeyes of the chainwales. Repeat for

the other side.

To prepare the ratlines (parts 136), cut

lengths of thread according to the parts

list on the rigging plan.

There are two methods for rigging the

ratlines. The first, shown here and in

Step F, is more work, but it will create

a more authentic look. Start off by tying

the end of the first ratline around the

first shroud.

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

The second method of rigging the

ratlines is faster and easier, but it won’t

look as good. Apply glue to the first

ratline, hold it taught over the shrouds

until it is fixed to them, and then move

on to the next one.

Stretch the ratline out and tie it to the

next shroud. Continue on like this until

the ratline is tied to all of the shrouds,

then move up and repeat the process

until all the ratlines are fitted. Apply

some glue to the knots to secure them.

When the glue has dried, cut off the

excess thread extending past the first

and last shrouds. This applies to either

process for rigging the ratlines.

Rig the lower shrouds (134, 137, 138)

and ratlines (136) of the three masts.

shrouds and ratlines of the foremast.

Cut lengths of thread, according to

the plan, to create the futtock shrouds

(139), and tie a 4mm deadeye (G) to

the end of each length. Secure the

deadeye with glue, and when dry, pass

the free end of the futtock shroud

through the hole at the end of those

drilled in the top.

Pull the thread down until the deadeye

rests against the top. Tie the futtock

shroud to the corresponding shroud

below, and apply glue to the knot.

Cut the fore topmast shrouds (140)

according to the parts list in figure B

of the rigging plan. Pass them between

the topmast and topgallant mast above

the crosstrees and glue into place. Tie a

4mm deadeye (G) to the ends of each

shroud. Connect the deadeyes of the

shrouds to those of the futtock shrouds

with lanyards (141).

Continue this process to rig the

remaining futtock shrouds. Repeat for

the other masts.

This is how the fore topmast shrouds

should look when rigged. Repeat this

process for the main topmast shrouds

(143) and the mizzen topmast

shrouds (144).

The foremast should now look

like this.

Use 0.15mm thread to create the

ratlines (136 and 142). Remember to

secure them with glue and to cut off

the excess.

Cut lengths of thread to create the fore

topgallant shrouds (145). Tie these

shrouds to the mast, above the hounds

– see figure B on the rigging plan to

find the correct location.

Cut the fore topmast stay (150) and fore

topmast preventer (151) according to

the parts list on the rigging plan (figure

C). Tie the stay to the fore topgallant

mast, above the crosstrees. Pass it down

through the pulley on the port side of the

bowsprit and back towards the foremast.

Tie it to the first column (circled). Tie the

preventer to the topgallant mast, above

the cap. Pass it down through the hole in

the jibboom, down through the top hole

in the port side of the dolphin striker, up

through the bracket, then back toward

the foremast. Tie it off to the second

column (circled).

Loop the lashings (149) between the

heart blocks a few times and then wrap

the end around the centre, as shown.

Prepare the fore topgallant stay (152),

the preventer (153) and the royal stay

(154) according to figure C on the rigging

plan. Tie one end of the topgallant stay

and preventer above the hounds, and

the royal stay below the truck of the

topgallant mast. Pass them down through

the holes in the bowsprit, back through

the dolphin striker and then the brackets,

and finally tie them off to the columns.

The topgallant and royal stays should be

tied off to the first and second starboard

columns, and the preventer to the third

port column.

the mainmast and main topmast, and

attach a heart block to the other end.

Tie two lengths of 0.8mm thread with a

heart block at the end to the bowsprit.

The mainmast stay and preventer will

blocks on the deck, tying the ends of

the lashings to the eyebolts.

Follow figure C on the rigging plan to

rig the main topmast stay (157), the

main topmast preventer (158), the

main topgallant stay (159) and the main

royal stay (160). The topmast preventer

and topgallant stay should be passed

Tie one end of the line to the block

forward of the sprit topsail yard (arrow

with dot). Then pass it through the

block in the centre of the sprit topsail

yard and back through the first block,

and repeat. When the thread has

passed through both holes of both

blocks, tie the end to the column

as indicated in figure Q on the

rigging plan.

Follow the diagram (inset on the right)

to secure the line (169). Lead the line

around the bottom of the pin and

then the top, to form a complete turn.

Then apply three cross-shaped turns by

looping the line around alternate sides

of the top and bottom. Secure to the

rail with glue.

Prepare the bobstays (part 171)

and adjust them until the ends are

positioned equally on either side of the

hull. Tie one end to the eyebolt on the

port side (arrowed) and the other end

to the corresponding eyebolt on the

starboard side of the hull. Glue them

into place and cut off the excess thread.

Tie a 4mm double block to the ring

with 0.15mm thread, as shown.

Retrieve the anchors and 1.5mm thread

(cut this into four pieces, roughly

200mm in length). Loop one end of

the thread through the ring at the top

of one of the anchors and fold it back

up, then wrap the doubled section with

a 20mm length of 0.15mm thread and

secure it with glue.

Tie some 0.15mm thread around the

anchor near the top and bottom of the

shank, and secure the other ends of

the threads to the top of the gunwale

(arrows) with a knot and glue. Insert the

end of the cable into the outer hawse

hole and apply glue.

620

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Repeat Step F to prepare a second

anchor. Tie this anchor to the gunwale

with two lengths of 0.15mm thread, aft

of the first. Glue the end of the cable

into the inner hawse hole. Repeat Steps

F-J with the other two anchors on the

starboard side of the hull.

Drill a hole in the cathead and glue an

eyebolt into it (circled). Cut a 200mm

length of 0.15mm thread. Tie one

end of the thread to the eyebolt and

pass the other end through the block

attached to the anchor. Pass the thread

into the first hole in the cathead (1),

then through the next hole nearer to

the hull (2). Take it down and back

through the second hole in the block,

then back up through the cathead (3 or

4) and tie off to the column, as shown.
