Anyone have a 20 ft section of a wing mast laying round? Preferably in Central Florida. I've got a little project that a wing mast would be perfect for.

BTW, If anyone needs crew for Eustis give me a shout.

thanks,

Chuck

Chuck, look in the classifieds here on Catsailor...there is a full length superwing blank for sale on the fla west coast. Here is the ad cut and pasted.

Taipan 4.9 Wing Mast (blank- no rigging) -- 8.5 meters/28.7 feet, light weight, can be used F16 kit. Never used $400. michaelinfla1@yahoo.com 727-744-3253 (FL)(Sept)

Regards,
Bob

Talk to Red Gear Racing. I'd bet they've got one that has been dinged somewhere along the way.

Chuck-
Post a note on the

A

cat site- all the old

A

cat masts are essentially the same section and I am sure their are some

snapped

ones lying around somebody's yard-- maybe even able to get a CF piece if that would be even better for your

project

....

Thanks guys. I hadn't seen the section for sale in classifieds.

Kirt - CF might be better.
