Well, I finally got the mast installed on a boat that has sat for five years. C-25 swing. There were three of us, and it was a piece of cake, considering that two of us have artificial heart valves... Does anyone out there have advice on tensioning the stays without my buying an expensive piece of equipment?
I hope to launch in mid-July.

Hi Stephen,

'Glad you got your mast stepped without any problems. There is a discussion of mast tuning in both the old and the new C-25 manuals that are published on the Association website ... here is a link to the mast tuning section in the older manual (it starts about halfway down the page):

'Hope that helps ... good luck!
