Demasting Bellum

I spent the night aboard and started working early to prepare for demasting Bellum for our canal trip

I left a message with Roger to see if he can help us demast.  He has done it for 39 years.

Norm came early to help fold and pack the sails

Rod and Roger came at 1 and we demasted and tied down by 2:40.  Very smooth operation. The structure was amazingly solid.
