Thanks Bill. That's my intention.  This spring before the paint went on, I
removed every bit of hardware, overdrilled, epoxy filled and re-drilled. The
mast step is the last opening I have that's a threat to the core.

I'd like to know what I'm getting into before I start though.  No older boat
owners reading the list remove the mast step??
