Getting ready to purchase a 14.2. Stepping the mast seems doable, but not sure about lowering the mast. What techniques do 14.2 owners out there use?
Get a boom kicker. I had one on my 14.2 and it was a big improvement. I now have an Expo 14.2 which is better yet.I would say the trickiest thing for me is to get the boom set up without a topping lift. No idea if your boat has one, but I need rig something up to help single handed rigging.
Picked up my boat a few days ago. I think I will getting a boom kicker. Not too expensive and easy enough to install.I would say the trickiest thing for me is to get the boom set up without a topping lift. No idea if your boat has one, but I need rig something up to help single handed rigging.
You may have to cut the boom kicker shorter. Be careful not to let us rest against the boom vang hook on the boom it can mess it upPicked up my boat a few days ago. I think I will getting a boom kicker. Not too expensive and easy enough to install.
Good point! I read a couple threads that mentioned they had to cut it down. I’ll have to see when I get it.You may have to cut the boom kicker shorter. Be careful not to let us rest against the boom vang hook on the boom it can mess it up
