Post subject:  Broken fin mast

Ive broken my third mast, 2 in 2 days. Its probably from hitting oyster beds. Seems there is a designed break point in the 180 hub thing. My question, whats the screw for at the bottom of the mast?

Ive got 2 hubs now with the tip of the mast stuck in there, gonna try a screw extractor. At $45 apiece, worth a try.

The screw is to adjust fin tension... all the way in for easier pedaling. Back the screw out to add resistance / reduces the twist.
