[quote=yurdle]Related question: I've got a H16 and the rivets in the mast base have all broken the aluminum below them, so that without silicone sealant holding the base on it could just be pulled off of the mast .. it would take a decent amount of force, but I'm sure I wouldn't have trouble finding some good torque out on the water. Is it safe to use as it is? With the shrouds and forstay pulling down on the mast I'd think it would be really difficult for the base and mast to come apart, but it seems like on the off-chance that they did, it would be a really nasty situation. Any thoughts? Thanks[/quote]
