D.4.2 CONSTRUCTION
(d) The front beam may have a strut and tie of optional material, excluding
carbon.
Is the strut mentioned above mean the dolphin striker? My plastic end caps on my cross beams cracked...can I replace them with carbon fiber caps?

yes the strut is the dolphin striker, yeah i don't see any reason why you couldn't use carbon for your end caps, much like other boats have carbon spreader arms, mast rotation, compass holder and the carbon found in many fittings.
don't know if they will be any better than the plastic ones, but no harm.
