Hi Volker
I've seen a HT26 with extra strengthening in the roof. An extra iron beam was bolted under the ceiling. The rooftop was bent downward because of the pressure of the mast. If I were to have that problem I would surely make a solid support under the mast too.
1.I would make a frame around the door (on the inside)
2. A crossbar somewhere, where the sittee ends and there support this bar on stainless rods on the floor.
3.Then a sturdy bar in between these frames where the mast sits on top.
Good luck
Juup
