Couldn't say anything nicer about Dennis. He has a new boom on his crane, so he can handle larger masts. we have a 55 foot mast. it took him and his helper 1.5 hours total to build the cradles and mount our mast on the deck We are eastbound, and stayed overnight on the wall across the river, he called us over at 9am as promised, and we were on our way. He charges $10 per foot plus a charge for the cradles and straps. Total out. The door was around $800.

Dennis was very helpful and accommodating in destepping our mast for transit of the Erie Canal. He provided tools, a cradle for the mast, and carpeting. He was very patient when we encountered mechanical issues. His charges are very reasonable.
