That's great. I'd like to use this idea for my O'day Javelin. How did you attach the strap to the mast? By the way,I also have a Cape Dory 26 that I trailer. Great boat.

Lucas, thanks for the helpful video! Can you please post directions on how you made the rear wooden support for the mast. How did you attach it to the rudder fittings and what was the height? If you have build photos / videos, that would be great.

I'm still sailing, moved up to a Cape Dory 27 about three years ago. I'm happy, don't want anything else. I learned here, I like small sailboats.

@@larryjordan4114 I don't have the max anymore. It was a very good boat, I learned a lot. You should be able to figure out the rigging from the video. The drain plug should be just a stock plug but if that doesn't work try a cork or rubber stopper. I still sail a lot just moved up a bit to a bigger boat.

My mast is bigger, an ODay 17, and I cannot raise it, it is too heavy and unwieldy. I have never sailed before, this is my 1st boat. What devices do I need, modifications etc. I need assistance, thanks.

Hi great video. Could you send me the dimensions of you trailer? Location of rollers and height and angle of bunks and rollers? Thanks in advance. I have a DS 2 and the hull cracked over a bunk. My clearance over the fenders is a lot less than yours and I am sure everyone would appreciate it. I know I would! Thanks in advance

Prospective Daysailer owner: Nice video. I liked the ratchet strap. I sold my Rhodes22 which had a longer, heavier mast, 9 stays with Harken furler on headsail. It was a bitch getting the stays and halyards in the right place before you used their proprietary brake winch on gin pole mounted to the cabin top. Your system reinforces how simple this boat is to launch. So Thanks!

I keep meaning to install a tabernacle setup like that for my daysailer. As of now the mast needs to be lifted straight up and dropped into the cuddy. No fun

@tdk1246 4 жыл бұрын

Trying to lift a mast into a small hole is difficult. A tabernacle makes a big difference.

Anyone have any ideas stepping a mast that does not have a tabernacle?

@tdk1246 5 жыл бұрын

It's really difficult to raise a mast without a tabernacle by yourself. The length of the mast is too cumbersome. If your boat does not have a tabernacle and you need to raise the mast by yourself - a tabernacle is a must. DR marine has a hinge plate for $55. You can convert your boat if your mast goes through a hole in the cabin top.

@blaws6684 5 жыл бұрын

If you don’t have a tabernacle just stay on board and pray :) Better yet seek guidance from the Parrish.

Very helpful video. I just bought a Daysailer 3 and I'm confused about the rope configuration for the swing keel. It currently appears to be somewhat disassembled inside the cuddy cabin. I'm not sure how it should be connected. Could someone be kind enough to post a short video showing how the ropes coming from the keel casing are configured?

The rigging for the center board leaves a lot to desire. I was never a fan of it. Over complicated, jammed a lot, and got in the way all the time. daysailor.org has some diagrams that will help you out.
