hunter260 bosons chair

[pedersen265]

I own a Hunter260 and have never been up the mast while stepped. I weigh about 200 lbs. and wonder if there are any concerns re: using a bosons chair to get to the top while docked. Any advice?
Thanks'
Dave

Why put yourself through that drill. It would be simpler to inspect/repair the mast head/ windex/VHF antenna with the mast down. There is only the main halyard to hoist your chair to the top- no safety line.

Thanks Steve - I have done that so far with no problems. I will stay close to the deck where I belong. Have a good day.
