Interesting!

In Response To: I've never done that... (Jeremy Hardin)

I always used both pins, and since I lately raked my must backwards, I was concerned on the pressure that is put on the plate when the forward pin is used. I guess you are right - those pins really are not for keeping the mast up (shrouds and forestay are for that).
