Hi,
Before I put my Cushcraft R5 on the roof,(10M). I
would like to know, is it worth reinforcing its
structure.
As it is, I feel after a few good gusts it would be
some what bent in the lower sections or worse...

Does it need strengthening?
Have you strengthened yours? 
If yes HOW?
Or point me to the archives

Guy ropes could be a bit tricky for me.
Thanks
