I think if I took her out the mast may not have been up for too long and/or it may have filled with water. When I was taking the port chain plate off I was on the last bolt and the plate just pulled out, nut and all! Water got in and it is rotten.

I think the snap hooks at the transom are some kind of righting system. It was a continuous system to both sides with shock cord and a stainless ring for take up.

No centreboards either.
