i purchased mine from Jill Nickerson (wife of pro cat racer Robbie Daniels). I think its from the Capricorn cat. its a mid pole / aluminium ring with a mylar bag. She has f18 sizes in stock and can ship anywhere.

Andrew, What's the purpose of the line from the mast to just below the furler? Thanks, Bob.
