So the highest affixed points on my newly acquired Mac26X (while on trailer) are the 4 poles that hold the lifelines on either side of the boat. They measure appropriately 8’2.5”. The door to the storage facility I’m using is only 8 foot tall. While I could take them off, I’m considering the following mod and would like some additional thoughts on the matter: First, I cut them off about 6 inches below the top. I then take a slightly larger stainless steel pipe (just large enough for the original to fit inside) around 10’ long and slip it over the lower, still affixed portion of the support pole. (I would take time to finish the ends of the new pipe so it’s smooth) I’d then drill a couple holes in both the lower and upper portions to put SS bolts/lock nuts through. The idea being...I’d then be able to remove the necessary inches whenever I put it into storage, but still have them in place when on the water...thoughts?
