[Rhodes22-list] Trailering Checklist?

[Joe Camp]

Hey Bill:

Better late...  I like the wrap for the mast ends, good way to protect all of those lines.  How do you keep that 4 X 4 from scarring your deck from the road vibrations?

I know I'm a bit late to the party, but a couple of things that I do that
aren't shown here are:
1)  Buy a big roll of celophane wrap from U-Haul and wrap the front (base)
of the mast assembly with it.  It keeps all the lines and other junk in a
nice tight bundle and also keeps road grime off of it.  I secure at both
ends with tape.  Wish I had a picture of it.
2)  Instead of tying a line from the mast step to the mast, I made a
rudimentary support post out of a piece of 4x4.  It supports a little of the
mast assembly weight, but more importantly it keeps the mast assembly from
pumping up and down when you drive over bumps in the road.  I would think
that using a rope would eventually loosen and pull out the screws that hold
the mast step in place.
