Lowering a mast is fairly easy and can be done by yourself. The picture is self explanatory. Your mast will be deck mounted so just ensure the top of the A frame is a couple of feet above the spreaders. Secure the base of the legs and brace them for and aft. Mainsheet is perfect for the purchase. Mast will not be that heavy just awkward. I've done it at the mooring and you can just about guarantee motor boats ripping past.
