[quote=hyperope]OK, so I have made my maiden voyage with my new (1980) Nacra 5.2 cat. Once rigged, all went well. Have to get used to the tacking technique with this boat
I had to step and unstep the mast three times due to fouled lines and/or wayward halyards before launching. Had to do it with the boat on the "beach" (dirt/sand) at edge of GA lake) with bows down towards the H2O. How does one step a mast while the boat is still on the trailer? It is a beast for me and my bigger-than-me 17 year old son to tackle. also, is there a good way to secure the halyards so they don't wind up climbing the mast while stepping.[/quote]
