Hopefully the 4 lanes will stop in Bayboro as planned.

I'm one of those Yankees buying property. We purchased a lot on Broad Creek two years ago.

Hope I'm not being redundant in my response. I attach the boom vang (more purchase than mainsheet) to the jib halyard and then pull halyard until the vang is all the way out. <b>CLEAT</b>the halyard to the bottom of the mast. As the mast has been raised (extending the cradle), I start lifting and guiding as my sweet bride starts pulling on the vang. Up she goes and while holding the mast in place she pins the forestay. Install forward lowers and you are in business. To lower, pull the vang until it is pulled tight (attached to the jib halyard again and cleated off). Remove lowers and forestay and as she pays out the vang I walk the mast backward and deposit in the cradle. Yes there is a point where the angle has been lost, but we only raise the mast in April and unstep it in October. The boat is on the hard at the lake other than our weekly trips to the lake. This is our 4th year with a trailerable boat, but the mast stepping episode has been ok.
Glad no one got hurt.

OKay, one last comment.
I don't have roller furling - it makes lowering and raising a lot easier.

You are referring to a Motor B.O.A.T., aren't you?
