That mast would be good, but Id recomend sheathing it still (wraping carbon round it!) As this was part of the mast I tried when I put a 12ft fixed pole and 30sqm kite on my cherub............. it snapped in 3!!! But yer, get a cherub, join the mailing list and already ppl have offered masts, around 4 people so far!!! |

Wow!! Hey this sounds crazy! I'd love to pay a third - do try and get it down to £150, cos then it's only 50 each! But if not then it'll only be £66 each (on average I know - why don't we get the boat (if we can), get someone at chew to look at it and say what we might need to do, or we could take some photos and put them on here and get everyone to say what we need to do as cheaply as we can!! Cor that was an essay for me....! |
