I need about four sawhorses to lay my sailboat mast (50') horizontally
while I am doing the preparation work in the spring.

Ideally, I should be able to transport these four sawhorses in the trunk
of my car from my house to the yacht club. Then bring them back home and
store them for the rest of the season.

So far, I have not been able to come up with a design that is foldable,
strong, and easy to use and store.

Any suggestion will be appreciated.



TIA

Denis

... How high off the
ground did you want them? How long is your mast? How much does it weigh?

Shaun

The distance from the ground should be min of 36 inches to clear the radar
radome antenna. The clearance from the water line 50 feet. The exact
lenght of the mast will have to be checked. The mast is deck mounted so I
estimate 50 feet less 5 feet = 45 feet long. As for the weight I have to
find out. I estimate the weight to be less than 1000 pounds. I will check
with the manufacturer.
