Chute up at last.

Took us a while. Should have checked out the sail before trying to raise snuffer. Never checked since we bought it (used). Louis the rigger from Bayona has fitted a gennaker pole for us and we decided to try out the cruising chute even though I had never seen one before. Eventually got it up after a lot of messing around and its great.
