This shot shows the mast on the way up. I started winching the mast up and then stepped back to take this picture. The rope from the extra trailer winch is attached to the main halyard for hoisting. There's a roller at the top of the strut for the trailer winch rope to turn around. Usually I have a headsail on the CDI, but not today since I had taken it to the sailmaker for maintenance. -->>BTW, Jerry Barrilleaux helped design this system.
