Good call.

My easy to set up boat is a very simple boomless, unirig 474 Freestyle. That makes it very easy and simple to prep...especially when helped by one other person, who knows how to help and is helping in exchange for a bit of help on readying his boat.

We pin the mast base in the step, raise the mast, pin the forestay, slide the daggers in, check the plugs, place two pins for the rudder assempbly installation, tie the boomless sail on the tramp and I'm pretty well ready to hit the ramp and push the boat off the trailer.

For most anything thing else, I take a few minutes on the beach.

The other boats take a bit more time and hassle.

The Stiletto 27 takes a few guys, a number of hours and a number of breaks to let the sweat dry.

Compared to that one, most any beachcat is a breeze.

That's why, when possible, most usually get stored mast up or sit mast up on a mooring.

Is life good or what...?
