I am going to make a gin pole to help solo step my mast on 21SC. Does anyone know the length? I took a rough measurement and get 80 inches. If mast was already up, I could take measurement to base of furler, but hard to eyeball angle with mast down. Any other thoughts/suggestions? Thanks!

I'll see if I can remember to get mine out and measure it for you.

Minimum mast to past the furler drum. Longer is better. Short and it will pull out of the mast under load.

Drawing says 80"

Confirmed, I measured mine at 80 inches long with a outer diameter of 1 7/8".
