Posts: 321 Albuquerque NM | The one thing you need to remember is put the pin in before lowering the mast. I think everyone forgets one time but usually not a second time. Howard Being a slow learner, I have done this twice, but I think it is also very much worth the extra 20 seconds to put the drain plugs in. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

Posts: 4,118 Northfield Mn | I had a SS sail feeder on my 85' wish I would have removed it. It wore a hole through the sail cloth where it chaffed when the main was up. My 06' boat has one side of the luff track machined out to feed the sail. This seems like a much better setup.
I'm boatless.
