"Once the mast is out, how best to plug the whole in the deck?" What I did this offseason was crude and simple, but hopefully effective. I had a roll of thick plastic sheet laying around the garage, and a really big twist-tie thing made of rubber-coated wire. So I just cut an oval of the plastic big enough to cover the hole with a few inches of overhang all around, then cinched it up around the base of the collar with the big twist-tie thing. It's not going to blow off, and it's not going to leak water, and it's not going to sag in.

I've been the owner since 2003, and I am reasonably sure the standing, rog rigging is original. I've met with a rigger and I am awaiting his recommendation ,including the costs and other options. I'm hoping the existing rod [25 years old] can be re-headed as this would be the less costly route to go[not counting "doing nothing", of course]. I'm in the yard and they can pull the mast as early as next week. That said, I would appreciate any tips on this project. For example, once the mast is out, How best to plug the hole in the deck? Also, while the mast is down, I want to replace the VHF cabling, install LED lights, clean/paint the mast. Any suggestions in these areas would be great!!! Fair Winds, Pete W.
