Mast Raising System

A side to side bridle is used to keep the mast from falling to the side. The side to side bridle is clipped to nylon loops at the gunnel, even with the foot of the mast, and passed through the spinnaker ring on the mast. The main halyard is used to tension the side to side bridle. The key to the system is that it uses the trailer winch to do all the work. The trailer winch provides enough mechanical advantage that just about anybody using the system can step the mast.
