[C38] Mast deck collar

[Joseph Launie]

Tom, The deck collar was fabricated when I commissioned the boat. It is 
much heavier than the original and has larger bolts which barely fit. Joe

I was wondering if anyone can shed some light on this.  Where can I find one made for the Catalina 38?  What about the stress on the deck from the blocks pulling up?  Is there a need for a strut down below to transfer the load back onto the mast?  Any photos you may have showing your deck collar would be helpful as well.
