I'll just keep the mast at the yard for storage and repair. I was afraid it might be too heavy My hope is the hauler can bring the boat home but I am waiting for confirmation otherwise it will have to be kept at the yard adding 1+ hour for any work days on the boat Thanks Peter Sent from my iPhone On Sep 20, 2017, at 10:09 AM, Josh Muckley via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com<mailto:cnc-list@cnc-list.com>> wrote: The new furler owners manuals often advise supporting the furler in a manner that will facilitate draining to prevent freeze damage to the extrusion. I think this is probably also a good practice for the mast. I think you are going to be surprised how heavy the mast is, I would be uncomfortable putting that much weight on the pulpits. Build a wooden cradle that sits on the boat and braces off the toe rail. Probably need 4 or 5. Your mast is probably going to be close to 60' length so be careful how much extends out the front and back. If you have no mast work to do you'll probably be able to safely store it and the furler at the boat yard. How are you getting the boat home?
