Went down after work and Tony and John helped me get the damaged spreader down.
We first tied the spare jib halyard off to the toe rail and tensioned it.
We then loosened the upper and intermediate shrouds.
I went up in a bosun's chair and pulled the pin holding the spreader on the mast casting.
The mast casting looks good; could not see any cracks.
There is a scrape on the mast just below the deck light, but no dents.
The aluminum spreader is destroyed:
Hopefully Klacko Spars has a replacement.
