My AMFlite 14 came with this 2" round cork insert in the mast step. The cork is 5/8" thick. From other threads on this forum I understand that it is a good piece to have, as rotation of the mast during sailing will - over time - grind and potentially damage the step.
As you can see - however - my cork insert is crumbling away and I am thinking I should replace...?
Do others use something similar and can they recommend? Or - is a mast with properly installed base cap fine and there is no need for such a piece?
best regards
Steve
