Jack,
I did what Will Barry said and supported my mast with a piece of 2x6 =
with smaller pieces on each end. (Made an "I" Post). I placed some =
scrap pieces of carpet on the deck under the support and on top of the =
support at the mast. =20
One thing I did different was to leave the mast in the rear support. =
Due to the winter weather in MD I can occasionally work on the boat. =
With it in the rear support I can get around the cockpit a lot easier.
The tarp I used was the largest I could find and I tied it to the =
trailer. Last year there was plenty of comments on the list about the =
tarp damaging the hull finish coat if it was too loose during windy =
conditions. So I had a line to the trailer at every eyelet. Overkill? =
Probably but no rope or tarp marks on the hull.=20
