I’m wanting to set up the rig on my MX14, so wondering how to find the horizontal on the hull deck (or waterline) so I can get the mast vertical. Also is it correct that the keel leading edge could define the vertical? Basic stuff I’m afraid.

Is this any use?

I use a laser leveler and set the beam at the tip of the bow (below the bumper) and the bottom tip of the transom to represent the water line - see the marked point on the pdf attached above. The laser has a right angle vertical beam that I use to set the mast.

I have a picture hanging function on my phone - does the same thing as a lazer level.

That’s interesting. Can you name the app please. Thanks

Is it IPhone Measure App which can measure distance or level?

I am trying an app called ‘laser level’. No lasers only lines on the screen using the camera function

My phone is android and the picture hanging feature is in a 'toolbag' app that came with the phone. Must be many similar apps readily available.
