Considering the T2 for use as a Family boat with the Kids ad Wife etc ; but I will have to rig / de-rig / store away from the water the boat each time i use it.

I'm wondering if the 2 piece mast makes a big difference to both the storage and rigging aspect of the T2 ?

Are there any draw backs (for example, performance?) with the 2 piece mast option ?

Thanks in advance for your guidance.

Duncan

There are two parts... but they are glued / riveted together. Not designed to disassemble.

Hey Matt ; thanks for the note.

I may have misunderstood, but I was referring to the "Featured Options" shown on the HobieCat webpage for the T2, which notes that a "2 piece mast" is available.

If the 2 piece mast comes pre-assembled / glued & riveted, what is the advantage of the 2 piece over the (presumably) 1 piece mast ?

Thanks.

That is an option in Europe only since the mast is all aluminum, the have a splice they can add. With the US CompTip version... not possible.

I notified our web guys to make a change.
