[quote=gahamby]I had cats go turtle on me. It's no fun. This is all about sealing the mast. You don't need a pool. Remove the base of the mast, angle the mast head down with the hound facing down and fill it from a garden hose to past the hound.
The water will find a way out of every hole. Personally I like to bed down my mast hardware with 3M 5200. After the last time I sealed up my mast it held positive pressure from the sun heating it up. The section on a SuperCat is bigger than a lot of other cats. The boat's designer, Bill Roberts, stated that this gave the mast enough buoyancy so as to not need a float. I guess I'll find out if I flip it.[/quote]
