• Uncoil the main halyard
• Thread one end of the main halyard through
the bullseye at the top of the mast.
• Run both ends of the main halyard to the bottom
of the mast and tie in place (this prevents them
from disappearing back up the mast!).
If you have the Jib and/or Gennaker Pack, please refer to Section 3.4 Rigging
the Jib, and Section 3.11 Rigging the Gennaker before stepping the mast in
the boat.
To complete this section, you will need:
• The mast top section
• The mast lower section
• The main halyard
3.3 - Rigging the Mast
a)
b)
c)
• Place the mast top section and mast lower section on the ground, in line with
each other.
• Slide the inner sleeve of the mast top section into the end of the mast lower section.
• Push the two mast sections together. The angle of the join should ensure that the
mast track on the two sections aligns.
Please note, top and bottom mast sections are matched, they are not interchangeable
so if you have more than one boat you should consider marking the sections to identify
which go together.
