This probably _is_ a regional thing. If you do it regularly twice a year, the amount of time at the crane is less than 30 min. Our Club policy is that you can book the crane for just 30 min. Most people can manage under that limit.

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 John and Maryann Legacy III 1982 C&C 34 Noank, CT -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album Email address: CnC-List@cnc-list.com To change your list preferences, including unsubscribing -- go bottom of page at: http://cnc-list.com/mailman/listinfo/cnc-list_cnc-list.com
