O’Day 322 masthead pocket

[SamRy]

Does anyone have pictures or schematics of how the shroud is attached to the masthead. I believe it sits in a pocket and I am concerned mine may have come out of the pocket. The turnbuckle on the starboard side is fully tightened but the shroud does not feel tight enough…there is still lots of play.

Do you maybe mean a stem ball fitting?

I must have a different problem as it looks as if the stemball all cannot come out of the pocket.

Pictures help us assess the condition and will generate ideas for a solution.

The aft lower port stay needs an extender in order to attach the lower shroud. The starboard upper shroud‘s turnbuckle is fully tightened (maxed out). The mast looks straight but the upper shrouds feel loose…I can move them approx 3 inches. I can try to post some pictures.
