| Post subject: | Mast repair? Help!! |
I was lowering my mast to cover up my H16 for the winter and my mast ( somehow half full of water ) was too heavy for me and fell and broke up near the comp tip (it's fine). Is there any way to repair - weld the aluminum area, or do I just need to buy a whole new mast? I'm in N Mississippi at the DSA. I've seen alot of neglected rotting away cats there - wonder if one of the members would sell me their boat for parts? Will a mast from a different brand cat of the same size work at all?? I've got several months to hopefully work this out :-/ Thanks guys!! Tim -- 81' Hobie 16 " Magic Carpet Ride" North Mississippi Docked Live in Memphis TN -- |

I have seen a Prindle mast with a patch welded in the middle, but I wouldn't trust it. Surely Damon would know of a mast available in your area? If not and if you're interested in one around Jackson MS, shoot me a line at jv1234_99<at>yahoo<dot>com. |
