Royale's Rigging Prop

Peter Watts - Sailor tied in the Rigging

Royale's 'Sailors in the Rigging' images are amongst the sexiest  they ever produced.
I use the one above regularly to headline announcements at the mitchmen blog. 

Royale - Peter George & buddy - Sailors in the Rigging 1

Royale actually had two rigging props (both shown here) but they were not not identical, the far one has four upward running strands, the nearer only three. The 3-strand version permits sexy positioning of the central rope between the model's legs . 

The three strand variant only appears in the two sets shown above and the well known flogging image featuring Ron Wiltshire (i.e. Sets C, D and E). The other eight use the four stranded variant.
