I'll be away until Monday morning, europe time.
I therefore propose somebody else runs a contest over the weekend and I pick up this one after that.

Thank you LadyL. Well I went down to the harbor this morning. Driving over the hill down to the ocean was a visual delight. Cold clear morning with nearly unlimited visibility. Made me want to go sailing, but alas, I sold my last boat years ago when I moved inland. But that gave me a good question. From bow to stern how long was my largest sailboat and to add to it how tall was the mainmast. I had a yawl, so for the non-sailors, the mainmast is the big stick in the middle of the boat that you hang sails from, not the smaller one in the back.

60 feet above the deck, 68 if you insist on counting from the step.
