In Response To: installing the decks/ bedding compound (Paul G. Jacobson)

SWIFTWOOD has a rather robust mast partner and step for both masts.
I'm more worried about the maintance of it than the load.

I've got the deck came with the original kit. I like the gasket idea. :) Nothing like good old caulking.

I've thought about a cloth deck for the outriggers, but I can twist those 45 degrees :o They need a deck to fight the torsion.
