[quote=Adam_Q]Hey Bob, I just upgraded to a NACRA 5-2 myself. First off I broke the easy step that came with the boat. This weekend I did the following. I made a stand out of two 2X3's that I bought from Home Depot ($1.98 ea). Parked on a flat surface. Attached the mast and set it in the stand so that it was at an angle. Put a pully at the top of the mast cradle on the trailer that I ran the winch line through and attached to the Jib Halyard. I used a couple of tie downs to tie the forward trapeze wires to the front cross bar to prevent the mast from swinging which is what killed my easy step. Cranked up the mast with the winch. Worked great and was not too scary. The mast on this boat is huge compared to my Prindle 16.[/quote]
