Agree with Chilly re prevention and suggest also using 1.5 wraps of clear packing tape at start of rigging around mast joint. I started doing this to avoid annoying joint separation in middle of rigging frenzy, but it also adds to joint cleanliness I expect. Cost and rigging delay almost zero and having the tape handy is great for sail rip repair on site.
