good to know thanks. On the shrouds do you know what you typically set them
at and what the rod sizes are (need to get a tension guage)
Thanks

<div>I'm looking for some advice on the mast position, both at the step and in the deck opening. My mast currently has the step plate all the way back and the mast has 3/4 of the opening on the port side and 1/4 on the starboard side. But is perfectly straight.
