Hi,
I rigged my new Laser for the first time last night. One thing that struck me was the potential for the mast to wear away the inside of the mast step.
I see in the class rules (19a) that 'To prevent abrasion of the mast step , a tube or collar ... may be placed around the entire circumference of the lower mast '.
Do people generally do this, or is wear not an issue? If you do, what do you use, I can't see anyone selling a specific product for this purpose.
Thanks
