Buying boat w/ out mast, rig "

Wow, brave man

Or bargain hunter




Could I not assume that any spare manufacturer would have a mast and rig of appropriate dimensions

If need a mast I suggest trying Rick Fox or Shawn at US spars in Gains villa florida

Or you could find a boat being broken of similar size where you could salvage the spars from

Of course has to be local because shipping spars can be expensive

The 400 from hull 1 to 162 used a Isomat now Selden and the hulls 163 to the end used a Zspar which is new US Spar.

The dimensions are the same however the mast mount js different and the boom is 1.2 meters above the deck on  the early models and 1 meter on the later.

CHARLESTON SPAR masts are far better than US Spar. I have had both of them.

Thanks for the help.  I'm a lifelong cruiser so I'm really CHEAP.  Having said that I would spend more for quality.
