Thanks for the info. I take my mast down every year, but I mostly leave the shrouds and spreaders attached. Last year I removed the spreaders from the mast but left them attached to the shrouds. I use sewn-on leather chafe material on my spreaders, so undoing the ends is a nuisance. As I noted in an earlier post, I have permanently removed the halyard guard at the masthead. For anyone else considering that, I would also advise sewing a leather chafe guard around the toggle at the top of the forestay. |
