I installed one of those when stepping my mast this spring and it was simple. My wife and daughter did the install. If the mast is down you can slip the new boot up from the base of the mast, so no cutting and glueing necessary (except trimming boot top and bottom to mast and collar circumferences respectively). It looks clean, doesn't leak, and costs $25-30.
