That's not my boat or me, so I have no more pics. I thought it was a simple and effective retrofit. In your case why not place a support post directly on top of the bilge up to the deck or to a suitably reinforced bulkhead which would then act as a compression post. (S/S pole on top of a piece of king board to keep it out of any water).

So do the whitby's have a "bridge" over the bilge and shaft to support the compression post?
I still need to do this on the Westsail and am curious how other boats have done it.
Could you post more detailed pictures if you get a chance!
thanks!
