Re: Stus-List Mast Holes...now mast wrap
mast wrap warms up the cabin because it lowers heat loss? Interesting. Been thinking about adding one for halyard sound-muffling and aesthetics, but hadn't thought about warmth. Warmth matters on Lake Superior...

Is it a way to control humidity within the section? Is there another reason? Is it something I should be concerned about?

Re: Stus-List Mast Holes...now mast wrap
Agree on the effect of “warmth” in the main cabin. We had excess Ultra-suede from our new cushions project and the upholsterer took a length of it, added thin foam backing and velcro to close it around the mast. I mention the foam because a previous poster mentioned damping the sound of halyards. It didn’t really but it looks the bit. As regards the holes in the mast, although I generally agree with Rob that it probably isn’t a structural issue I’d offer a differing opinion from an old friend who had a CC dealership in the 70’s and then later went on to work for Forespar. He was never comfortable with all those holes. He kept urging me to heli-arc a formed plate over the area to stiffen it.
