Mast boot

Posted by Allen McClung (amcclung@…>)

Does anybody know where you can purchase a new boot for the mast? I’m
talking about the rubber sleeve that keeps condensation from running
down the mast into the boat.

Thanks

Allen

Allen I seem to recall some one about a year ago used
a tire inner tube and was very happy with it.

I used a lorry inner tube and it has been a great success - so far…
Sorry I was slow to reply but have just come back from holiday with 2 broken arms! If I can help by telling you what we did, let me know, although honestly, I think taking the mast off and being able to check for wear or damage at the same time is a real bonus.
Good luck anyway

I like the idea about the inner tube. Did you use a metal clamp to
keep it on?

Vacation that resulted with two broken arms?

Please go ahead and tell me what you did and how you did it.
