mast step on CM38

I am preparing to pull my mast. 6 yrs ago when it was out it had
signs of corrosions - any hints or advice on how to repair or
replace the step in a Charlie Morgan 38.
 

Greg,
I have (C) M-38 #072. Many years ago I found the mast step (steel) badly corroded. Water in the bilge and soap from the shower helped rust the steel step. Had a new step made of SS. The base of the mast then began to corrode. If I do it again I'll replace the step with aluminum similar to that of the mast.
Hope this is a help

Check the archives because last year someone had mast step problems and solved them. maybe you can find the solution to your problem also.
