The mast is now in it's 4 constituent parts minus it's fittings and most of the paint. Half of it is now in the house in the upstairs hallway drying out/ keeping dry and the rest is still in the garden (until it stops raining when I want to work on it.).

Well I've got it. The mast is in a bit of a state but hopefully repairable and the boom belonging to the mast is better (well at least straighter) than the one I already have. The mast has some nice 1960s stainless fittings and some interesting non stainless shrouds and a jubilee clip (holding the t...
