We picked up our new-to-us
boat last weekend. We're going to have her hauled (including unstepping the mast) on Saturday to give her some lovin', but we can't figure out how to remove the boom because of the lazy jacks (which our previous
boat didn't have).
The boat has lazy jacks (I'm assuming
Harken because it looks like the same set-up), and the straps are riveted in place. We can untie everything, but then how will be set it back up again when the
mast is stepped in the spring? The blocks are too high to reach from the
deck, so I suppose we could just go up the
mast in a chair.
I feel like we're missing something obvious. Any suggestions?
