Clarence, Here's the link to page 4 of the M17 photos . . . It shows the factory mast-raising system: No details or text, but someone who knows what they're looking at (which doesn't include me :-) ) might get the general idea . . . --Craig

Craig,

The only mast raising system I saw was for the new M-23, which has a different tabernacle configuration than the M-17. Did I miss something?

The Nor'Sea website, www.montgomeryboats.com, has pics of a mast-raising system they set up for a new buyer.

Being 70+ I look for the help I can get when doing something physical. I am sure that I read some where in the files about an optional mast raising rig. Has any one used it? If so does it work? Has any one developed there own system that works for them?

Sure am glad that you all are out there to help?
