Step 6: Step the Mast

The last step was to step the mast (put the mast in its shoe on the deck). This requires some patience in lining it up properly, then lots more patience making sure it is straight. Then we attached all the shrouds to the deck, ran all the halyards and lines, then put up the sails. It took the entire day to get this done.
