[Rhodes22-list] Lifting the Mast off of the Boat

[Mary Lou Troy]

If you have the mast hoist system (the crane, the cradle and the 
instructions!) you can do it with the boat in the water tied to a dock. 
We did that several times when we owned our R22. It is helpful if you 
have a second person. You will need help to transfer the mast to the 
dock or a nearby flat area to remove the sail. The only time we ever 
removed the sail, we had the mast supported on sawhorses as the equally 
long furling tube with the sail attached has to slide all the way out 
the base of the mast.

Good luck
