Hence I was doing the masts I took a look at my Hull and found a big mistake Hi put some eyel on the top rail over the chainplates and thay are epoxy them in place Those were the wrong things to put in there so to get them out I used my really nice soldering iron heated up the eyes and pulled them right out they came out with ease is that happen to some one els this is what u can do to fix it
