I have an i12 with Turbo Fins , just had my second mast failure without any impact or recognizable cause ( first was a year ago ). Should I upgrade to V2 instead of replacing the V1 mast ? Can I keep my old V1 Turbo fins with the new V2 upgrade ? Any other considerations ? Anyone have failures in V2 with no cause ? |

You can just replace the Masts and Sprockets with V2 parts without having to replace the drums and chains. |

Thanks Bob, Do I need to replace my V1 Turbo Fins if I go to V2 Mast and sprocket ? Also any opinions out there on cable reliability of V1 vs V2 ? ( I have had 2 V1 cable fails ) |

Just the masts, not the fins. Also, of you always break, say the front mast, you could even just replace that mast and sprocket with the V2 to start with. |
