Well, here I am pulling my mast in 2 ½ Minutes, mostly in the dark, with my
spindly girlfriend doing most of the cranking. (uphill, both ways!)

And I was poorly prepared last year!

Also, if someone could get my mast off in 15 minutes I would expect they
could do my bottom paint and zincs in 10 minutes and replace my engine in 5
minutes.

This must be a regional thing. Mast pulling is fairly rare in Maryland. I am
almost never hauled out during the winter, but the few times I have been the
yard didn’t even ask about the mast.

Let’s seeeee

 

Mast up = HUGE increase in windage and pressure brought to bear on cradle or
jack stand pads = increased issues of hull flexing / damage

Effective area of pad in contact with hull is about same as your hand
clenched in a fist

Pads are located in area of cored hull

 

Yard has purpose built mobile crane for masts with extending boom etc.
Takes about 15 minutes to pull

Yard staff is well seasoned and qualified

 

Get to thoroughly inspect mast, rigging, lights and instruments every year

 

Have stored with mast down for 30+ years – works for me
