This is a great discussion thread. I have had the box of spartite in the trunk of my car for two years but have been to hesitant to use it. My main concern is that I have not been satisfied that I have ever had the best mast alignment in the collar. If someone could provide info on this this for me for a c&C 35 mk1 (racing trim). It would be much appreciated.
Much appreciated.

Something like mast, lube paper, Spartite, boat??

The line I use to pull the stick is substantial, but it stretches a bit. The first time I pulled the mast after installing Spartite, the line stretched before the plug “let go.” The mast jumped about a foot, like a big-ass pogo stick. Very unnerving. As I noted earlier, the bigger problem for me has been getting the stick re-aligned so the plug fits correctly when putting the mast back on. This may take some fine adjustments, which takes time, and your help may lose patience – especially if you’re splitting the crane time. In my view, this is the biggest downside of Spartite.
