STEP 1: 

 

You will start off by rais- 

ing the boom crutch to its 
highest position.  Then walk 
the mast aft with the main- 
sail track down until the base 

of the mast lines up with the 
mast step.  Position the mast 
correctly in the step and have 
the crew member designated 
push the pin through the aft 

hole con- necting the two 
parts at the step to form a 
hinge. 

Loosen all turnbuckles 

until there are four (4) full 

turns on each end and then attach the uppers, lowers and the backstay to the 
appropriate chainplates.  Attach a swivel block, not included, to the mooring pin in the 
bow.  Tie the jib sheet to the forestay turnbuckle with a bowline and lead the sheet 

through the swivel block and aft to one of the jib sheet winches.  You are now ready to 
raise the mast.  (We suggest that you double-check these procedures one more time 
before going to step two.) 

 

STEP 2: 

 

The strongest of the crew members will be the one 

to raise the mast as far as possible while standing in 
the cockpit at the forward end while another crew 
member puts ten-sion on the line attached to the 
headstay by cranking the jib sheet winch with the 
winch handle.  Tighten this line as tight as you can. 

 

 
 
 

 

 

 

 

 

STEP 3: 

 

After making sure that the headstay line is fully 

supporting the mast and is now sec-urely cleated, the 
crew members change pos-itions; the crew member at 
the winch takes the place of the crew member at the 
mast and vice versa.
