Philosophy 101:

Setting up a small boat for ocean use requires some careful planning. Materials, products and tools can be critical for long-term reliability. The Internet has made shopping both a treat and a chore. Read what we learned through rigging Toy Boat 2

Here is a photo gallery of Toy Boat 2 as we first launched it. Hopefully, this will give you a better feel for how things were installed and how they turned out.

REMEMBER - Toy Boat 2 has changed a lot in areas since then. In Part II of this article (next issue), we'll go over what we learned during TB2's sea trials and subsequent fishing trips, and how we changed things around. Also, check out the Toy Boat 2 Scorecard to see the current configuration, and how things are doing.
