Unfortunately, my boat was staked down and the mast rotator was taught. It pulled the nearly 4 feet of the auger out of the sand. More F18 than F16 flipped and they were staked down as well. Wind was howling. What I did learn was to stake down both sides using the trap wires.
Mark Thomson has loaned me his Blade mast and I am back in business.
I use various anchor methods depending on the soil.
For sand, I use 2x4 (about 2' long) with a line tied to them. I dig a hole in the sand to bury the 2x4 and then secure it to the trap line (same for the other side).
If the ground is hard I use 18" screw anchors for each side and tie the line to the trap handle.
