Steve,
Many thanks for the quick response – ironic that our boats are both having new masts from the same rigger within a few months of each other! They have said that I need a new mast so suspect we will be getting a double spreader Selden mast like I think you’ve got. Would appreciate any tips or pitfalls to look out for with the new mast. Cheers, Ollie
Hi Ollie, Disaster, I have just had my old mast replaced with a new Selden mast, unfortunately the old one was disposed of quickly and i only managed to keep a couple of good sections, I gather you are based at Sparks boat yard on Hayling Island, I could pop over with the bits at the weekend if you are desperate.. best regards Steve

Hi Ollie, It is probably worth you popping over to Port Solent and taking a look at “Rubys Rascal”, I did have to make quite a few modifications to the plug that the old mast sat in and you do need to reshape the various holes through the deck, heads etc, best regards Steve
