mpaneth Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 Yesterday was a disaster. Was out on Port Phillip Bay and got hit by a 1.5m wave which flipped my 4.3m Maricat, resulting in a broken mast. Any ideas where I can get a new mast?

Dr Peter Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 Mike, I have a second-hand mast from a Mark II about which I will make no claims - I have never used it. I have pitchpoled about four times with my modified mark I mast and nothing has broken. I am sure I could get a fellow Victorian going for a modest price with my second-hand Mark II mast. Apologies, Mick. Peter Maricat 2416 Commodore YYC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mpaneth Posted January 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Thanks for the offers. I (maybe a bit mad) decided on a new mast and found a supplier in Melbourne who has blanks. Bob Keeley 03 9555 4965 has plenty of K-04 sections which look like the replacement for my mast. I am busily drilling the required holes and now need to find someone to anodise the blank. Does anyone have any suggestions for anodising a 22' mast in Melbourne? I also need a new mast base as mine has cracked. Also I need a new dolphin striker. Bob didn't have a striker but helped me make one by using a piece of aluminium tube over a spreader. Then a stailess steel screw to adjust tension. Looks simple, but I'm not quite sure. Does anyone have an original Dolphin striker, which I can pop into the existing holes? Mike Don't Panic 2284 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
