Scantlings mizzen mast.
I have bought the CF mast recently for sale here at JRA. I’ll be using the top 44 ft and the specs look good for that section. So that problem is solved.
As for the mizzen mast.. I’m not quite sure as how to calculate the specs for that one.
5,5 - 6 meters total length carrying a small 9 sqm sail.
I’m thinking of calculating strength based on sail area.
9sqmx 7,5 kg/sqm wind force = 67,5
3 meters up the mast. 202,5
safety factor 3 = 606 say 650 kNm
I’m thinking of an alu pole of 120 mm diameter at partners tapering to 70 mm. Wall thickness 3 mm
Anyone want to chime in..?
