Howard Sounds like a winner. Do you ever encounter side sway on the mast on the way up or down? George Boatless (but not for long) We cannot direct the wind, but we can adjust our sails.
No. I have all four shrouds attached before I lift it. But care has to be taken here. For some reason, the shroud turnbuckles sometimes tend to not come through the process, the bolts get in a bind and can jamb. Too much force at the wrong time and you can bend those bolts. Not a big deal, just something to watch for. I normally leave the shrouds attached...unless it¹s going to be a long trip.
