As Matt mentioned, after a couple boats blew over at our club, they came out with an edict that any boats with masts up will have to be on a cradle. That is not to say that a boat can't blow over in a cradle, there are tons of poorly designed cradles, or poorly maintained cradles around. I have

Stus-List Re: winter storage

Tipping is one of the main reasons I store mast down. Mast presents a lot of windage in cold winter storms. Puts a lot of pressure on small area of poppet that actually contacts the hull. To experience how much just stick your arm out the window of a car going 60!! Use steel cradle purpose

Aluminum coefficient of thermal expansion is about 13e-6 and SS about 6.5e-6. If the mast from keel to head is 50 ft, and temp change is 100 degrees F mast contracts about 3/4" and stays, which are shorter but angled, contract about 5/16". So, effectively, the temperature loosens the stays for

Re mast up. A friend stored his C 33-2 with mast up and it blew over in a winter storm. He now has no mast. With mast down possibly the reduced windage would have prevented the boat from blowing over but certainly would have not resulted in a mast broken in three areas. The boat was on a

Good question. Should you loosen the rig for winter storage? I've been advised to leave the rig tension alone unless you cranked it up to banjo tight and can play tunes on it. If you tensioned the rig for racing, you might want to remove any excessive tension, a turn, but unless it's bar

Leave it. I assume you are concerned about creep of the rods? If so, any metal creep under load occurs in the very early stages. Regardless, the at rest load on the rigging is not at a level to cause any measurable creep Jeff Laman 81 C Ludington, Mi Get Outlook for
