Pimp Club

   It's just a lower shroud tied to the stem just to stop the mast falling over, there's no forestay on it as it's in the jib (which also isn't on it).

	Its definitely a wing mast, probably from C-Tech judging by the spreaders. May be an R Class? Whats happening with the forestay? It seems to go from the top spreader to the lower spreader along the mast, annd them from the lower spreader to the bow.

	That mast is embarrassingly fat for anything but a cat.
	Ross If you can't carry it, don't sail it!

	Blaze 'HALO' development rig? Boom angle certainly looks about right...I know it has a rotating ring too....
