We're taking the mast down this winter and I'm going to paint it white. Starwind masts all seem to be black. Is this bad form? We are thinking about adding a Schaefer headsail reefing system. We hank our headsails now. Is it worth selecting the foil with 2 feeds? How worthwhile is it to add a spinaker pole and should a track be installed on the mast? All these thoughts are being tempered by considering the expected re-sale value of the boat after the improvements. We have a 1984 model with shoal draft and an inboard diesel engine. We hope to move up in size in about 4 or 5 years. I'm thinking that in the meantime I could turn this boat into a fun club racer if we move to a location with an active club racing scene!
