Sunday Afternoon, 28 March, 2010
This was a quick one I did Sunday afternoon. I noticed that the long mast, bolted to the bow pulpit and supported by a mast crutch in the aft, had a LOT of flex as the trailer bounced down the road. I took a leftover piece of PVC from when I built the house and cut a cradle to support the mast. I made the bottom fit over the bracket to which the mast is bolted while rigged. I use a bungie cord to hold it all together. This is one of those inexpensive but very useful mods!
Hopefully, we'll put Galactica in next saturday and spend a day/night exploring a local lake!! I'll post then.
