The mast stand, used for trailering or when we need to lower the mast for a bridge. It swings down under the stern rail when we are sailing.
Racing. I know what they say about keeping the mast upright and the boat on her feet, but this is positively the fastest point of sail for our boat, heeled over or not.
If you've seen the movie "Wind", this is our Whomper.
We had this cover made from Sunbrella to keep the rain from blowing into the cabin when the boat is on the trailer.

Rope clutch for the main halyard.
These are the turning blocks at the base of the mast to serve the halyards.
This is on a lake in Kansas, before we moved to Florida. The boat is Soire'e, another 26D we had before we moved and bought the 26D we renamed Soire'e (it's a long story). We wanted to see what the Mac would take before it laid down, and it never did. This boat is a very forgiving and fun platform.
