[Rhodes22-list] home built mast crutch

[Gary Lockhart]

I wouldn't want to use my boom like that. I made a gin pole based on the catalina22 article and a mast crutch for the stern to start the mast up in the air as high as possible. It works great. I have raised and lowered the mast singlehanded (not my preference but doable).

good luck , Gary
