The crew of the Lagoon 450 catamaran *Parlay Revival* unsteps the mast to replace a severely corroded compression post.0:04 Before unstepping, the team loosens all seized turnbuckles using heat and leverage to ensure a smooth removal process.5:02 After disconnecting all mast-run cables—including VHF, radar, and wind instruments—and removing the boom and mainsail, they use a crane to lift the mast in a shipyard slip.10:51 Upon removal, the crew discovers the old compression post is filled with water, likely due to a lack of sealant at the mast base plate and blocked drainage holes.20:14 They install a new, shortened compression post, utilizing two 3/4-inch aluminum plates and plastic shims to compensate for the length difference and distribute the load.24:12 The installation includes sealing the conduit and cable entry points with epoxy to prevent future water ingress.30:17 Replacing the compression post and standing rigging provides necessary structural integrity for upcoming offshore passages.12:39
