Ron:
It is important to get the lifting point on the crane directly above the
mast. If not the mast well tip once it is disconnected from the
keelstep. Positioning of the tip of the mast crane is done by rotating
the mast crane and/or moving the mast boom in or out. Remember that
adjusting the boom in or out will affect the height of the tip, so you
may also need to adjust the lifting cable.
Alternatively, you can move the hull to position the mast by adjusting
the bow, stern and spring lines. You want the hull to move as little as
possible and to be tight against the dock, so you can easily step from
the deck to the dock while holding the mast. Readjusting the lines may
result in the boat too far off the dock. Moving the boom is a better
option if possible.
