Jerry The distance from the butt of the mast to the two 1/4" holes at the hounds that the shrouds and forestay hang on is 14ft 5inches. The slot on the front of the mast is indeed centered 3 3/4" below the measurement of the two side holes. Additionally, the opening for the bolt rope is 32 to 38" from the butt. I measured these twice so I hope they are accurate. Let me know if they are correct. Dan M15 #468 Redlands, California

Then, could you verify that the slot on the front of the mast (that the forestays goes thru) is centered 3 3/4" below the measurement of the two side holes?
Then could you verify that the opening for the bolt rope entry is 32 to 38" from the butt? That's the way I remember these things, but it was a long time ago.
Thanks very much, and please put it on the list because Norm Bundik needs it also.
