[Rhodes22-list] mast raising for Morgan

[Kroposki]

Morgan,
	If you can tote the boat from the 6th Great Lake to Long Island
Sound to Maine, then you would have little trouble raising and lowering
the mast using Stan's on boat crane. 
	Furthermore, you can do it single-handed, that means by
yourself, that is if you read the directions that Stan supplies.

Subject: [Rhodes22-list] mast raising


   Hi,

   Stan of GB asked me to write to the list to get an unbiased answer to
   my question concerning raising the mast. How difficult is it to do
   with the main, jib, and boom attached? It looks like I would be
moving
   a heavy piece of metal into place and then raising it up. Since I am
   not the Arnold Sch. type it looks difficult even with the mast
raising
   device. I also would like to know if it takes under an hour to raise
   the mast and launch, or retrieve.  I would be using the boat on Lake
   Champlain, Long Island Sound, and the islands around Rockland ,
Maine.
   Thus trailering to these spots and then preparing the boat is a
   concern I have. Thanks for any help.

   Morg
