Hi John,

We just finished a discussion on this topic:

Mast Step Popped, Sep 11, 2011
http://old.nabble.com/Mast-Step-Popped-tt32444069.html#a32456539

	"While setting our mast at a local lake the mast step popped
	off with the screws somewhat stripped.  We reset it and raised
	it carefully figuring that the weight would help hold it... "

and another some time ago:

and yet, an older version:
Dislodged mast base plate, Jul 11, 2003

The repairs are well documented in these discussions.

1990 Rhodes--never re-furbished.
 I need a little help from my fellow Rhodes owners.
Today, I dropped the mast.  When doing so, the plate the the mast fits in
pulled out with the mast.  It appears that the plate hast three screws.
How do i fix this before raising the mast next spring? Do I use larger
screws? Do I try bolts? I have not seen this issue before and do not
understand why it happened.
Responses are very welcome.
Thank you fellow Rhoadies.
John
