Heavers as used by Riggers and Sailmakers
-
The rigging of ships and the making of sails entails much pulling and stretching of ropes and small stuff, the working tight of whippings, seizings, stitches, lashings and all sorts of bindings in both fibre and wire. This monograph will give the range of solutions that have been found, developed, evolved and invented to help get the line or strand as tight as possible.
