I have just been (two weeks ago) at the top to put the windex on. That is a different mast (C270, but if anything the mast is much lighter and thinner)) and I am a few pounds lighter, but this was not an issue at all.
Just remember to have two separate lines supporting you. If you use ascenders, the guy at the winch does not have to be that strong.

I'd like to replace my windex with a new one, but don't want to drop the mast to do it. On larger boats we send someone up the mast to retrieve halyards etc, but has anyone done this on a 30-1? I wonder if 200lbs at the top to install a new windex is too much of a risk of damage or injury. Has anyone lived to tell the story? Cheers, Jay
