Can any one tell me how high I have to put My Hunter 260 (year 2000) for the winter So the keel can be dropped out and the line replaced. All the wheel under my mast has to be replaced.

Not enough info

Paul, How do you expect to get any kind of answer if you don't indicate what kind and size boat you are talking about?

The draft is 1' 9" with the board up and 6' with the board down. The keel adds a bit over 4' to your draft. Add a few inches for safety, and to paint the bottom of the board. (might as well while its down)

I'm willing to say that the height needed to replace the line for the keel is much higher than the height needed for witner storage. If you do set it on stands 5' in the air, please don't leave it that high all winter!!
