I haven't submitted this article to any publication yet. Targets would include Cruising World, Sail Magazine and Good Old Boat. Perhaps the reason I've yet to submit it is because I'm not too proud of the level of seaman ship I displayed. Anywho, a cautionary tale for any sailor who relies on others to rig their boat.

Please note that I made no effort to format the piece in any but the most basic way, so it's ugly.
