I'm after getting myself a Finn (so I can try and give the boy a race ) and have found that most in my price bracket are offered without a mast... can anyone help me source one please?
Cheers, Jon

Re: Wanted - Carbon Finn Mast
Have you tried asking a few of the BFA folks, as they will have a good idea of who has what, often before being advertised. It's probably also worth asking Rodney at Suntouched because most boat dealers are also providing masts for their customers. Make a few enquiries about mast bends too, the fore and aft bend is fairly standard these days but a lighter helm needs a bit more side bend. Note also that round carbon masts are available fairly cheaply but will not match modern sails very well.

Thanks Peter, have already posted on BFA with no joy as yet, hence here also.
Speaking to Rodney tomorrow anyway to finalise some kit purchase...
