Whats the easy way to raise a mast? | SailNet Community I've got an 18' 1961 Mercury by Numes (#419) wood with fiberglass hull Very tall (26') aluminum mast and with a fixed keel, the boat sits high on the trailer Mast needs to slip down through the shaft and into the base Tried to do this today with a friend and we simply couldn't get the
creating a tabernacle from a keel stepped mast - SailNet Community Mast sections as cantilevers and deck partners are not strong enough to resist the high bending loads anf thrust from a large mast pushing forward as it is being lowered Eliminating the portion of the mast cantilevered above the deck keeps the mast base and king post largely in shear and axial loading, and reduces the thrust resisted by the deck
Spar vs. mast. Whats the difference? | SailNet Community The mast of a sailing vessel is a tall spar, or arrangement of spars, erected more or less vertically on the centre-line of a ship or boat Its purposes include carrying sail, spars, and derricks, and giving necessary height to a navigation light, look-out position, signal yard, control position, radio aerial or signal lamp
Mast Abeam? - SailNet Community The old "mast abeam" has been out of the rule book for some time If you attempt to pass a boat to weather within two boat lengths lateral distance, the leeward boat has the right to "luff you to the moon" if they choose to The logic, as I understand it is: you have put yourself into a give-way situation, presumable intentionally and you should expect your 'victim' to defend vigorously
hinged mast - SailNet Community A 45ft mast is a big mast to tabernacle; not sure what you would have to do but it probably could be rigged to raise lower I have seen boats lower their mast via a cable winch that attaches to the backstay (IIRC) but not sure if that was the procedure because I was watching from the dock
Mast Winch Install Rigging - SailNet Community Hi all, I'm in the process of planning to install two Lewmar 16STs on either side of the mast of my PS 34 I've added hardware to masts before, but never winches It's a pretty stout mast, but doesn't have any built-in pads reinforced locations for winch mounting I have a few questions about
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
Folding Masts | SailNet Community Apparent, folding mast setups on larger, long, and heavy masts like yours and mine present some interesting issues to solve On my 27 Buccaneer I lower the mast via the trailer's high mounted winch lowering to the aft and onto a temp cradle at the stern It works just fine but then I have to un-pin the base and carry the mast forward for stowing
Solo Mast Stepping System - SailNet Community The mast will come down on that, resting at a point that is behind the center of gravity On my mast support I put a rubber roller, like those used on boat trailers, on the frame at the point where the mast would come down on it Once the mast was on it, I would disconnect the hinge at the base of the mast and walk it forward
Mast stepping?? Sail Rigging?? | SailNet Community Hello, This is my first sailboat I am having my 28' Pearson hauled to a marina where they will step mast and connect the standing rigging Should I have them set up the running rigging also or is that something I can do myself? Thanks!
