First time single handed mast raising. It was made easy with the hinged tabernacle. Follow me as I refit this 1965 O’Day Ospray in hopes of a spring launch, while sailing my Pearson 26, SV KYRON. Each episode is one step closer to her maiden voyage.

My 1965 Paceship 19' moutte looks like the same boat. Your video is a great find for me.

Your term, "Yard Sailing" made me laugh! We are all boys at heart. I have set up my daysailer II with a 2x4 A- frame, which spans across the cockpit seats. The tiller handle passes through the middle, and has full travel. I primarily sail in small rivers, and regularly step the mast down on the A-frame rest to pass under the bridges. I use the jib halyard line to raise the mast, rather than a special line.

Sounds like a good technique to raise you mast… I have only very tall bridges that Navy ships and cargo ship’s easily pass under so once my mast is up, it’s up for the whole cruise. I’m planning to take her to a lake in New Hampshire in a couple of months. I like that flexibility of a trailerable sailboat.

@marcusgardner7640 Год назад

Jason, do you remove the jib from the jib line to use it to help raise the stepped mast, or how exactly do you tie it off?

@marcusgardner7640 Год назад

Solitude, which NH lake? Newfound? Winnipesauke?

@solitudeandsailing9854 Год назад

@@marcusgardner7640 no. I used the forestay and tied a line to it back to the cockpit for lift assist

@@marcusgardner7640 definitely want to sail in Wnnipesauke, I’m planning to bring her to Spofford Lake in the Keene area since I’ll be camping up there. I also want to sail Lake George

I'm an old guy and definitely need help raising the mast. Your video sure will help me to do that. I live in Warwick (Lakeside) R.I. and will probably launch from Gaspee area. I'll keep an eye out for you.

@solitudeandsailing9854 5 месяцев назад

We are neighbors. I’m out of Warwick Cove area. What’s the name of your vessel?

@aaronfenton3894 4 месяца назад

Thx for info. I followed your technique and made a scrap wood mast support and bent carriage bolts to fit into the rudder gudgeons. worked fine for a DS 16. aaron near Whitby, ON, canada

@solitudeandsailing9854 4 месяца назад

So glad it worked out for you. It’s so much easier than before

@bobdeering5635 5 месяцев назад

No name yet, will have one before launching. I have a way to go work wise. Thanks for responding, I'll keep in touch. Bob Deering

@bobdeering5635 4 месяца назад

Hey again, about to get my registration, still no name yet. I was wondering what type of hinged mast step do you have? And where may I buy one? Thanks in advance for any info you may have, Bob Deering

Try D&R Marine out of Massachusetts.

Couscous! Ha ha ha! Wonderful! Suggest a tension gauge if you're adjusting shrouds. Like the content, would like to see a closer video of the block at bow when you step the mast. Enjoy your sailing time. Cherrs!

Kuzkuz, oops

@solitudeandsailing9854 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for the comment. I do own a tension gauge but did not think to use it on this small boat, just went by the “Good’n Tight” method… what should my tension be on the gauge? Also will try to remember to do a close up on the forward block in a future video. It’s basically just latched onto to forward bracket where my forestay attaches.

@olivei2484 9 месяцев назад

@@solitudeandsailing9854 Not sure for your boat, in fact cant recall mine either. Just so they are the same, like you said. Do you use the jib halyard to step? I think your boat has a spinnaker too.

@solitudeandsailing9854 9 месяцев назад

@@olivei2484 yes, I tie a line to the forestay that the jab hanks onto and run it back yo the deck. The same can be done with the job halyard.

@solitudeandsailing9854 9 месяцев назад

You can see the block set up on this video at 1:45-1:51
