Mercator
Xmas lights
The volunteer crew of
the last sailing ship built at Leith have been busy
setting out some Christmas lights to present the recently refitted ship at her
best for this Christmas and New Year of 2017.
Mercator's mast's being prepared for Xmas Lights as seen above.
This fine and well preserved example of shipbuilding excellence is well worth a visit at her berth in Ostend on the Belgian Coast.

Some of Mercators Volenteer Crew sort through the Christmas Lights before climbing the masts to put them up in time for Xmas.
Up the rigging with full safety gear on to get the lights rigged.
