Steve:
Mine is hull #277....the baby stay is on a tunrbuckle connected to the
deck.....there is a 'SS rod' that runs from the deck to the floor
connection in the vee birth that supports the upwards pull of the baby stay.
A few of the 32 owners here have simply taken their baby stay off the
boat(s). Since Rob Ball designed it there, I have left mine on. It
does make tacking a little more cumbersome.

Thanks all. I figured I'de be ok but your feedback leaves me with some
peace of mind and that'll make the job, any job, easier.
Bob, no baby stay on mine . weird eh? I know the 32 had one, mine doesn't.
However mine does have a weird metal tube thingy on the floor of the
vee birth .. right by the door. The surveyor guessed that it might
have had something to do with a baby stay though there is no evidence
on deck of there ever being one. Is your baby stay just connected to a
fitting on deck? I'm hull number 59 so I figure by then they would
have settled on how they were building these but i guess not.
