2. Assembling the Mast
1.Untie halyards and tie off free ends to the
horn cleats so they won’t be lost when
stepping. (figure 1) Make sure the hoist end
of the main halyard is aft of the spreader
brackets and other rigging is forward. (figure 2)
2. To install the spreaders, remove the clevis
pins and cotter rings and slide the end of each
spreader with two holes into the bracket on the
mast: with the thin edge facing aft on
the mast. (figure 3)
3. Line up the holes and reinstall the two clevis
pins and reattach the cotter rings. (figure 4)
4. Remove the clevis pins in the outboard end
of each spreader and pull out the small clip.
(figure 5)
5. After locating the port upper shroud, slide
the clip onto it and back in to the port spreader:
then reinsert the clevis pin. Repeat for the
other starboard spreader. Double check the is no
rigging running between the upper ends of the
shrouds and spreaders. (figure 6)
6. For extra security, use tape around the ends
of the shrouds and spreaders to keep the cotter
pins from working loose. (figures 7 & 8)
