Simply release any backstay tension and secure the mast forward with
halyards.

Actually, this is only the backing plate in the photo. At a second
glance that last bolt and the plate itself does look rusty. The
chainplate is on the other side and I won't know how it looks until
I've removed it. I'll be sure to check it over thoroughly and replace
if necessary. I'm not too woried if the backing plate has pits or
cracks - it won't be under the same stresses as the chainplate itself.
I do have one big question - If I want to remove the headstay at dock
like this, can I just secure it down to the toe rail with lines then
remove the attachments? Should I be letting off all of the stays to do
this?
