Aquarius Sail Owners

I have the ARC 22 tall rig on my SC20. Does the pin in the mast base stay in while sailing? On my other boats the pin was just for stepping the mast and pulled for sailing. The guy I bought the boat from said it should always stay in because the mast will jump off the ball if you release the extenders from a capsize..

Mac,

That is correct, the mast base pin should remain in the mast base while sailing. This is true on ALL of the SuperCat, ARC & RC product lines. The pin is there to retain the mast on the ball during both raising/lowering the mast and in the event the shroud extender is used when capsized.
