Advise for Stepping Mast on H33.5

[Capn Phil]

First timer looking for advise on stepping the mast on 1992 Hunter 33.5. I will be assisted by a crane. My big unknown is the wiring that runs up the mast. Once I unbolt the four deck boats and lift the mast up a few inches what will I find in there? How should I prepare?

Thanks

You should be able to lift the mast high enough to unplug the wiring cables. But an H33.5 owner will surely give you the details. Meanwhile here is an important thread on the subject of 33.5 mast wiring: http://forums.hunter.sailboatowners.com/showthread.php?p=44100&highlight=mast step .
