Sounds like a YouTube setting – you have to tell it to not keep running.

They like to keep switching that back on.

Those videos don’t stop. I had to reboot to get rid of them

Here are a couple videos of me pulling the spar on my 39 about 18 years ago, 
the first one it gets dark towards the end, done with one crew and my

The second you will have to cock your head sideways (sorry), this done with 
just me and the same woman, but it only takes us 2 minutes and 30 seconds to do 
the deed each time, and the music is good.

 

Worth exactly what you paid for it.

I agree with Joe

 

Although we do it ourselves and do it every year we also need to have a group 
of people who come on their own time.  For these reasons I do everything I can 
before they arrive to use the least amount of their time that is necessary.  
Much would be the same if you pay to have someone else do it as otherwise the 
Rigger would have to do these tasks that are very time consuming.

 

Prior to the day of un-stepping the mast these are the things that I do and 
that you can also do:

 

-          Have all masthead gear removed.  Wind transducer, windex, VHF 
antenna.  Send someone aloft to do this 

-          Have boom removed.

-          De-rig all running rigging.  Have the halyards no longer running 
thru any blocks attached to the deck and coiled neatly and attached to mast 

-          Un-pin all shrouds and stays.  Lubricate all turn buckles.  Take a 
turn off of each to ensure they are not seized

 

These few steps take a lot of time but perhaps you can contact the people 
un-stepping the mast and see if doing this on un-stepping and then you doing 
the re-rigging would save on your quote.

 

I know that we have worked on a lot of masts.  Some owners are far more 
prepared than others and as a result the job takes less than half the time

This is not routine here in Maryland, my mast has been out exactly one time. I 
think it was $160 out and $160 in, which was the hourly crane charge back then. 
I had all the sails off, wiring disconnected, forestay and backstay off 
replaced by halyards, boom off, and the shrouds ready to go. The crane was 
literally done in about 10 minutes. If you paid the yard to do everything I can 
well see it hitting $1000.
