Hey. Blew the tenon on my mast plug last weekend and I've struggled to find a replacement. It's a bit of an oddball for a Phantom mast, being an Angell. It needs to be 50mm dia. with a tenon to fit the usual mast step. Can't see how to contact Angell. Any thoughts?

You could try measuring it and contacting the other majot mast manfacturers. You may find it is a standard foot from another supplier?

Have you tried posting on the Phantom forum as well, they are helpful over there (although a few of them hang around here too)?

Paul,

Many thanks for your response. I hope to have something in the post tomorrow!

In the meantime, I sailed a L**er at the weekend. Interesting!
