creating a tabernacle from a keel stepped mast The loads, once the mast is down, are comparatively light (50-150 lbs at each support) But having the mast pivot above the deck can easily double the load on the deck and greatly increase the cost of the project by requiring the reinforcement in the deck and the lower portion of the mast (tabernacle) to be much more robust in all directions
Deck vs. Keel Stepped Masts | SailNet Community If the goal of designing a mast is to reduce bending moments within a mast, the greater the number of panels (segments between shrouds and other supports) the smaller the moments tend to be In the days when single spreader rigs were most common a keel-stepped mast added one extra panel, the segment between the mast partners at the deck and the

Mast leaning forward (new mast step) | SailNet Community That mast is raked way, way too far forward The mast should be straight up and down (actually raked aft a little bit) and it's not even close The mast should sit on the base and not carry the weight on the pin at all The pin should just be keeping the mast step from moving fore aft
repairing cracked mast with welding | SailNet Community The mast is a proctor, which is 47' and only 6"x4" and has a good deal of flex Even with running backs secured, there is flex to some degree through the entire mast, and especially above the running backs while sailing hard to weather The mast is ~ 1 8" thick, and the plate is a good 1 16 thicker than the mast walls
