http://www.norcalsailing.com/entries/2012/06/05/ditchrun2.html#.T-iWoI2Mfqs Below quoted from Pressure Drop: Drew Scott was helming a F-28. "My crew is starting to swing around to pick me up when El Raton, in perfect control slides up beside me and asks if I would like to get picked up. They had already doused their chute and stopped beside me. I took their offer and got back into a boat (trying to stop a lightweight trimaran next to someone when it is blowing in the mid-20s is not easy so I figured I would not turn down El Raton. My crew ably finished the race on Papillon, only one boat behind El Raton! And I had many adventures with El Raton, but that is their story to tell. So, a great big thank you to the Ray Lotto and the crew of El Raton for pulling my soggy hide out of Suisun Bay!! Drew Scott Papillon (most of the time)" |

Does anyone has photos of their mast base, on deck and inside the base of the mast section?
Ballenger explains some sort of tubing (square tubing about 2" x 2.5" with 1/8" wall) that is apparently screwed onto the stainless plate and into which is the section is simply in place with a bolt going through the section. This allows a little play considering the base of the mast always rocks a little.
I need photos to better understand the mod.
Thanks!
Jerome
