Thanks for the info. Will file it away.
: Warren,
: I pulled my mast about 5 years ago and
: inspected the step and it looked fine, for
: being 25 years old I could see no problems.
: It is made of some kind of cast metal
: (aluminum?) that had some oxidation. I wire
: brushed it and painted it with some good
: quality epoxy pant and it looks great to this
: day.
: WhenI first bought the boat I noticed the
: mast bottom would fill up with water when it
: rained so I drilled a hole in the step for a
: drain, that may be something to look out for.

: How well have the Yankee 30's mast steps held
: up? I was reading about the Tartan 30 and it
: is something that they mention and worry
: about. What does the Yankee mast sit on and
: how has it held up over time?
