Steve, If you want to e-mail it to me, I'll put it up on the MSOG site for everyone to see. Doug At 07:07 PM 4/21/02 -0700, you wrote:

Greets,

As I was moving my boat around, wishing that I was sailing instead of just moving the boat, I remember someone asking about a crutch to get the mast elevated enough to clear the companion way hatch when raising and lowering it. My boat has an extension that sits on the transom, and ties to the crutch that I use for trailering. If you would like, I could send a .jpg (offline) to anyone who is interested.

Regards,

Steve

Hi Steve & Diana, I'm the one looking for ideas on a improved mast carrier, My thoughts are to have the rear mast carrier serve double duty, one level for trailering ( fairly level), the other level elevated as much as possible to gain height prior to raising the mast. Boughy my boat a couple months ago & it has no rear carrier, it was just laid on a piece of foam on top of the transom, I'd like something better Appreciate any idea you have, if you have pic's please post them.
