I keep seeing an infomercial on some sort of device that latches onto
autobody surfaces and "pulls" dents out:  Bet it would work on your mast.
I'll send details if I see the commercial again soon.

Thanks for the report, Bill

I just yesterday unhooked the shrouds and took the mast off to look at it.
This could be tough, but I think I have a plan for how to fix it.  The dent
is along the trailing edge on one side next to the groove and in fact the
groove
is pinched.  I'm thinking first of all of removing the masthead casting and
then
making something of oak that is the shape of the inside of the mast to slide
down
and hopefully beat the dent back out with a number of rams.  Probably need
to pry
on the groove too.

I'm guessing that the BCC was Sadie, a tan hull?  I went past her once some
time back,
lovely boat.

Tod
