Past tense in intro

edit

The intro says that shear legs "were used by sailboats and dockyards for tasks such as lifting masts and heavier parts of the rigging on board". Is there a reason this is in the past tense? If they are no longer used, this should be mentioned explicitly along with the reason why. 67.188.230.128 (talk) 05:42, 23 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
