Prepping for Mast Removal
February 11, 2026
Somerledi's owner had scheduled for the mast to be pulled this week as a last minute add to the yard's work list, so I scheduled some time to assist in getting the mast ready to be pulled. The following is a list of items I handled in order to prep for crane to easily remove the stick:
- Removed Somerledi's canvas cover (bow to stern), folded and secured within the cockpit
- Removed mainsheet, coil and stow away
- Pulled cotter pins from gooseneck pin, away removed the boom, stowing it on the side deck
- Removed the staysail boom, and secured on the side deck
- Removed the whisker poles, and secured on the side deck
- Removed the haywards, coiled and stowed below (main, spinnaker, staysail)
- Removed all miscellaneous lines on the deck, tidying up the boat for work aboard
- Since the owner elected to have all wiring replaced, I snipped the mast wires so as to not inhibit removal of the mast.
Oh, and I was locked inside the storage lot, having to jump the barbed wire fence and track down a key. :)
Total Hrs: 2.5
