Apparently raising from the bow must have been standard practice in the late 80's as that is how the PO taught me to raise and lower the mast on our 88.   If you recall, when I pulled it for a hurricane about fifteen or so years ago, the wind had come up and we struggled.  My then son-in-law and I managed to lower it and get her safely on the tailer but the next day I was on the phone to the factory ordering the hoist system.  Worth every penny in my humble opinion.

Back on the list.
