- Question:
Masts - When and how can we step a mast ?
- Answers:
- Place a mast with its maximum of rigging.
- Ideally, the foot of the mast is not glued. The mast being held only by its rigging.
- With or without gluing, check the tension of the shrouds (1), back stays (2) and stays (3), they can change the position of the mast.
- In the practice, we can make a light gluing of the foot with an adhesive putty. Gluing that can be removed for a possible repair.
