My new project this summer is to covert a 26 foot Colvic Sailor bilge keel boat into a Junk rig. As always, the most difficult part is finding a suitable mast.
Yes, I could build a wooden mast, or even find a suitable grown mast - but I am seeking something both lighter and more stable over the long term - ideally a tapered aluminium pole that could be adapted.
The boat is currently in Port Talbot South Wales so I am confining my search to Britain.
If anyone reading this has an idea where I might find a suitable aluminium pole I would be most grateful if you would share that idea on this thread.
