Good evening everyone: I have posted before on the problem of single handed stepping the mast on my 17' O'Day Daysailer. I received several good and helpful responses. But for all others, like me, that have this problem Please look in the September issue, of Sail Magizine, the article "Things That Work", page 116. This seems like a very simple solution and I for one am going to build this portable tabernacle and see how it works. I will report at a later date myself, but if anyone builds one of these before I do, please tell us how it works. As usual for me, any project may take some time for me to get around to it. If anyone has any other ideas that may help refine this portable tabernacle these would be appreciated. I really enjoy this website and forum and hope that I can continue to contribute to try to help others. I will also try to see if I can attach a photo to for those who cannot find a September issue of Sail Magazine. Fair winds, Gary PS: I tried to post a photo and it was to big. So I'll work on it and try again later.
