Another question: (I really appreciate previous answers!) My mast does not have the square end bracket on it's bottom which attaches to the bracket fastened to the deck (to make the hinge). Where can I buy this part?

mast hinge
Try the MacGregor site and get the entire mast raising system at the same time if you don't have it already. Cost for both about $175. Novelman

Mast step
The Mac's I'm familiar with use a U shaped except squared off on the bottom mast step. The style mast step you seem to be talking about is a much stronger one. They can be gotten from Dwyer mast co. I think they can be found at www.dwyermastco.com but will check and update.

Sorry Doug
It's not mine. I Googled for examples and came up with this one. I can't remember where I found it. I'll try to retrace my steps. It's something I'd like to add someday when I re-bed my deck plate. I could see running my halyard aft.

Doug - Catalina Direct
has many different styles of mast step plates. It's catalinadirect.com if my link to the store doesn't work.

Great Site!
Thanks Justin! I haven't seen this site yet. Even though it's for Catalina's, looks like there are a lot of parts that will work just as well on our MAC's. I saw the 3 hole each side Mast Step Halyard Plate for $35.95 Something else that caught my eye was the Pop Top Power Lift Kit for $129.95. I wonder if that would work on our pop tops.
