Re: Chebacco Mast

Peter,
Sorry,but I'm a Micrologist ;-),however I'll hazard a stab at your
question by guessing that either the lid for the slot serves to lock
the mast in place or perhaps a metal gate,secured to the slot
cleats/framing stock,drops in behind the mast.
There really should be a "Trivial Pursuits" board game just for
boaters with special editions for designers of repute.Bolger maniacs
would,of course,would have the most fun!
Sincerely,
Peter Lenihan,from you know where.................

P.S. Apologies to the Chebacconists!

I was looking at the Chebacco chapter of BWAOM the other day. In
particular, I looked over the construction drawing for the ply
version. I see the mast slot to make mast raising easier, but I don't
see what holds the mast in the "up and locked" position. Will a
kindly Chbacconist enlighten me?
