I have an Austral 20 trailer sailor and have had a difficult time developing a safe and reliable system to raise and lower the mast.

I've tried methods found on the internet and have got close.

There were plenty of these yachts built......does any Austral 20 owner, who regularly sets up their yacht, know how to get this sorted and get me sailing again?

Thank you if you might be able to help

Google trailersailerplace.com.au and there are many threads on the topic. There is also the "Mastmate" an Aussie invention. I use an A frame sheerlegs and the mainsheet pulleys to lift my mast single handed.

Thank you, I'd prefer to use a proven method on an Austral 20 if I could find one...I'll check that website

Go to trailer sailor place and search up Zeb's mast raising system.

He has a few posts including :
