The plan is to drop the mast for winter storage. I have no idea how long it has been up. It was up when we bought the boat, so was up all last winter as well. I would like to get the top bearings lubed and also replace the in-haul line (I did the out-haul already). It would be great if everything fell into place. The main sail looks new, according to the PO he never went out of the bay into Lake Erie, used the boat mostly to sit on and read.
FYI, I did get the ELCI breaker installed last Friday. 2 1/2 hours in about 100* and 98% humidity made me cranky. It works fine, surveyor came back, signed off and State Farm is insuring the boat.
