How can I reinforce the cross beam in the cabin beneath the mast step to prevent mast compression from depressing the beam? There are no stress cracks visible around the mast step on deck. I like to tighten the stays as much as possible and notice that the hanging locker door contacts the cross beam when the stays are taut. Thank you for your assistance.
