The sticking to the mast part works great unless you need to remove the plug for some reason (as I have -- twice). When I removed the plug on the 42 mast, it took the paint with it. I had previously removed one from my 34 unpainted mast, and used KY jelly (water soluble) to help get it off.

If I ever redo mine I am going to make a “muffin top” to keep water out better. Joe Della Barba Coquina C&C 35 MK I www.dellabarba.com <http://www.dellabarba.com>
