I saw this question on a recent thread and it reflects my earlier experience also.
"...what do you use for a mast crutch? My boat did not come with one and my PVC
creation is a disaster."
I'm posting this thread so as to find out what mast crutch you have. How do you like it?
Is it a DIY or factory built and have you made any refinements or are you planning to?
My DIY solution still could use some refinement because it's hanging on the pentils and
when mounted is not useable when the rudder is in place. I had originality thought that it
wouldn't be a problem because with the mast down I'd be using outboard for steering anyway and now realize that it's a hassle to remove the rudder while underway.
