Begin with platform on ground/sand without any rudders, daggerboards, tiller, blocks, etc., so the tramp is relatively clean. Set the mast so the foot is forward, spreaders rest on front beam and the top portion of the mast is resting on the rear beam (I use my mast cradle). Hook up the sidestays and trapeze wires to the hounds, then attach the sidestays to the hulls. At this point, I tuck the forestay into the bottom of the diamond wires so I can find it when the mast is raised. Set the spinnaker pole between the bows with the aft end between the main beam and the dolphin stiker on the side where the retrieval line goes. Thread the retrieval line from the back of the spinnaker bag and route it appropriately until it goes through the mast system and then tie it off to the Port spinnaker block. The mast should be ready to hoist, but double check that everything is routed appropriately.

Raising the mast: Get crew to pick up head of mast and you pick up the foot. Walk mast back until foot is at mast ball. Rotate mast 90 degrees so that spreaders go more toward vertical rather than horizontal. This wuill allow you to put mast base on mast ball. Secure with mast pin going through mast base and under mast ball (captive mast step). Crew will have to raise the head of the mast significantly to be able to mount mast base onto mast ball. Now get onto trampoline and lift mast to vertical position. Crew will need to come to front of boat, capture forestay (was trapped in diamond wire) and attach to bridle chainplate with pin. Using trapeze wires and crew, rig tension can be set.

I hope this is helpful.
