Next message: Richard Goodwin: "Re: lv-ab: How to silence clanging in the mast"
Nope, Got a 42 foot mast. Mast stepping charges on Lake Ontario average
around $2 per foot length if you assist in the process $4 per foot length if
the yard does it.
That's Canadian Dollars (equivalent to the price of a can of pop is USD!!)
