Nice work Tony, drilling out a broken bolt or stud is not easy because it's hard to drill centered and large enough to use an easy out that will bite well and hold the amount of pressure needed. In this case it helps that it's in a brass bushing and not rusted in. Even though this is a good post on a possible weak area. I wish you had told us about the nice Hali on board. I think the broken mast is because that mast had a defect other wise it would not have broken in that spot and not had stretch signs on the metal post instead of a clean break.
