I would add a couple of messnger lines in the mast and if you haven't
done so yet, blocks for signal halyards on the spreaders.

I'm writing the group this evening looking for input on preventive maintenance or projects to undertake while the mast is down. First off let me make the disclaimer, if you subscribe to the "if its not broken don't fix it" philosophy, please save your time and kindly reserve your comments. I've never shipped a boat before and I've never had the mast removed on any of my previous sailboats.
