Hello,
I am new to sailing and this forum and have a question about a boat I have. I have been learning sailing and I have brought an old (1980) Laser dinghy in very nice condition. I am new to this so this could be a silly question. The mast step (the hole for the mast?) seems in very good condition and the mast seems new and correct. When I put the mast in the step the hole is slightly larger than the mast (I think this is normal as I have seen this on other boats) BUT the mast its self can move slightly in the step. Does the mast usually feel 'clamped' when in the step? or does it have a little movement within it?
Thanks for your help
Mitch
