Mast Lifts
Mast Lifts are facilitated in the Travelift pen using a 2 Tonne capacity FASSI hydraulic crane.
All preparatory work must be undertaken by the boat owner prior to the mast lift. Contact details for Riggers are available in the Services section below. The mast will be transported to the mast yard for your maintenance work. There is a $25 per week storage fee while the mast is in the yard.
Crane hire fees are $215 minimum for the first 45 minutes and $50 per 15 minutes thereafter. The average cost of removing and replacing a mast is $420.
