*Wedges are only used like Marc said... to control lateral movement.

I'm afraid this is not correct. Wedges are used for and aft as well on many
boats.

Wood mast = wood wedges
Aluminum mast = rubber wedges


S/V Express 30 "Ringmaster"
Trains are a winter sport

I thought this boat was professionally surveyed by a great surveyor
when it was purchased less than 1 year ago. I wonder what else is
ready to fail that wasn't caught.

I hope it's not my radio! That thing made a shout to Jersey City last night!
Only lasted a few minutes.

lateral?? You gonna tell me now the orientation of the boat determines that
front or back is not a Side?????
