How good of a fit?
Neophyte first sail boat owner here. When folding the mast down recently I took notice of the difference in size between the clevis pins and the holes they were in. There is quite a bit of "slop." Didn't see any elongation of holes.
The conservative part of me says there shouldn't be slop in these fittings. Another part of me says hey these stays (forestay and sidestays) are under a lot of tension so no big deal since they are tight all the time.
This is a 43 year old 19 foot day sailer.
I am hoping to learned/experienced opinion here.
Thank you.
Have a Great Day,
Jim
