Mast pin

Contact Glover Taylor at customcylinders@hotmail.com I helped him out with the bridle and in return he made me one so I know he has the specs.

5/8" pin 6" long

In a perfect world you'd have a tool steel or stainless pin 6" long and 5/8" in diameter. I just bought a 5/8" galvanized bolt of about that length and cut off the head, which has worked fine. Fair Winds, Jeff s/v Windward 1978 Chrysler 27 #481

Metric deepwell socket

I never got the pin So I dug into the tool box and found a metric deepwell socket wroks just fine. Make sure it is snug in the mast and not to snug in the boom, if not you spend a good time getting it out of the boom.
