Hi,I recently restored an O'Day 20 which we christened "McGee" a few weeks ago on commissioning day. Man, My wife, daughter and I love our little boat, which we sail on Long Island Sound from her home port in Greenwich, CT. Sadly, on the way back from our first overnight cruise this past weekend, we were beating in about 12 knots when we heard a sudden "crunch" and the mast sunk about a half inch into the overhead. The supporting structure of the cabin overhead for the mast stepping heel was beginning to fail. We dropped the sails immediatey and motored in with loose shrouds.So now I'm contemplating a major repair. One option that comes to mind is a post inside the cabin. I would really appreciate any suggestions.Thanks and good sailing!Bull Weber
