    Two possible but similar reasons spring immediately to mind, either the mast supports of whatever type they may be are compressing under tension, or the chainplates/deck/hull sides are pulling upwards. Tuning from the bottom up could help avoid overtensioning the rig. Maybe slacking things off and retuning would help, but once you’ve sprung the hull/deck/mast step the damage may be permanent…

    Squishy mast step.
