I am not familiar with this boat. If it is 15 ft overall, then man
handling the mast up and down is practical.


The biggest trailered daysailers are the 38 foot, A Scows. The four
man crews put up the probably fifty foot masts with brute force, not
finess. There is absolutely no reason to leave home except to race, so
there is plenty of muscle available.
