Consider this...Just refurbished my RED EAGLE, ancestor of the RED WITCH. Hated the lousy mast base fitting, so had a decent tabernacle made up...with the pivot point off the deck...It did not alter the shrouds one bit. have posted a photo...cheers puggsy


Now I do not have to disconnect the mast to trailer it. The high pivot point virtually cuts off two feet of the mast and it lowers down to a stern support...the pole is a copy of a Mcgregor mast lowering system...get to see one, they work great...all done from the middle of the front deck.

Hey pugsy,
Thanks for the advice, fortunately it's all cleared up now and the insurance company agreed to pay for a whole new mast, i'm gonna head down to the boat tomorrow to have a look.
Great looking red eagle you got there, i've seen plenty of jackets and witches around perth, but never an eagle, i've heard of them and have looked all over for one and i look forward to bumping into you on the river. i'll be living on it once i get the new mast on and when uni exams are over
