CD14 Mast

[Dan Kretzer]

On the first sail I discovered that my mast was bent to starboard. I reoriented the masthead to have it bend towards the stern but on the next sail it bent further. Have already discussed with Rig-Rite but they're quoting a 12' section and mine measures 13'.

Maybe it was too tall all along? When I first set the rigging up the sail was way too high compared to photos so I added a lower eye-strap on the Gunter boom.

Also there was a 2 ft FG stiffener inside the lower end of the mast but it doesn't look original in the way it was cut and inserted. Any thoughts on that?

Anyone have a mast that they can measure for me? Thanks.

Need tube length measurement of a CD 14 aluminum mast.

Thanks!
