South Africa Met Mast Supervision

Alec Church has recently returned from a supervision trip to South Africa.  He was asked to assist Mulilo Renewables with the installation of one 70m HiMast produced by Nexgen, in the fruit growing region of the western cape near a town called Worcester, 2 hours drive North of Cape Town.  He taught a crew of local construction workers, with no experience of met mast installations, how to correctly assemble and safely lift the mast whilst overcoming a few teething problems.  It was a steep leaning curve for the novice crew, but by the end of the installation they had gained enough knowledge and technique to safely install met masts.
