Parking my new purchase of a Hobie 18SX, With the wings stored up high for the winter do I just bungee them together against the mast or is there some kind of spacer I should use to keep them off the mast wires.

There is a post on thebeachcats.com about how to make a trailerable wing stand from pvc pipe. Its easy and works great. Laying them on the mast will cause wear to the areas that contact when the boat moves in the wind on the trailer.
