[Rhodes22-list] Stan .... got mast stubs? how much?

[Mike Cheung]

Yeah, guess that makes sense that most any mast close in external dimensions
would work.  It would need to fit the mast car and I guess I'd probably need
a second one of those for convenience.  I suppose if I anticipated that need
I could slip the mask car for Muireann's pop top off when unrigging.  That
makes me nervous though from a "darn, where the heck is it" standpoint. 
It's harder to lose if it never comes off the mast.  Maybe wouldn't be a bad
idea to spare that anyway I suppose.  

I see what you mean about needing stays, though I like the idea of using the
mast on its trailering cradle for support.  Have to think a bit about what
kind of loads would be involved, but it looks like it should be okay.  I've
been thinking about rigging a mast crutch amidships anyway for when Muireann
is tarped down for the winter.  Didn't use a tarp this winter and she picked
up enough snow that I shoveled her off a couple times.  Of course, if I just
cleaned up my barn a bit she could probably slumber in covered luxury.
