What will the mast-system look like,
Because we have the height already the general consensus is a mast can be avoided and, it would seriously affect solar panel positioning and shading if we had one.

Should be able to get 45degree angle on the cable with what we have.

and how does she roll - is she stiff or tender ?
Carvel hull so she rolls.
Saying that, not as bad as many we have been on.
Happy enough to punch into weather without them but get any beam swell happening and all bets are off.

In the past we have been able to change course and essentially tack towards destination to stop it, but if we are going to put some miles on her as we intend, she'll need something better than that.

As she is our full time live aboard house we are a very much wait for the right weather window type of cruiser so reality is she shouldn't be seeing anything to bad.
