I have heard back from Selden and I will be moving my boat from Marathon Fl to Charleston SC for analysis. Their factory is in the area. I plan to get moving within 10 days while Selden arranges for a yard and crane. Once there, the current plan is that Selden will analyse the current setup, unstep the mast and step a new mast. If changes to the running rigging or mast is necessary, Selden will implement. I'll post again when the repair is complete. FYI....time from my calling Selden to a plan being put in place ~48 hours. Not bad!
