Mast raising and lowering
Any tips or advice / lowering the mast single-handedly? I've done it with the main sheet block and tackle a couple of times, but it is such a heavy pull, and with no cam cleat, It's hard to take a rest in the middle. I would love to trailer the boat to more places, but it's this aspect of the proces...

Shore Power

Re: Mast Shoe Help
Yep, that's what I did.
Then I went out and had a successful mast raising!
Man, that was exciting.
Thanks for the advice.

Mast Shoe Help
Hi There I tried raising the mast on my boat today. It was the first time, and I misunderstood how to keep the mast parallel to the boat. Long story short, it went askew which sheared the rivets holding the pivoting foot to the mast. Thankfully that was the extent of the damage. Does anyone have adv...
