I dont know if there is anything else to say. I dont think there are two dies and would be surprised to hear otherwise. I dont think there is any ill will or hidden agendas behind the weight of the masts you and Gato got. Any advice supplied to you and Gato was surely all in the best meaning.


I too don't think in hidden agendas, but I think that these should be mentioned. Whole situation is different if you have a boat next to you and you can test it yourself (with older mast? <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />) but for people basing their decisions on numbers it's unacceptable that they don't match. In this thread alone we have lot of hear says, so let's get our measurement data somewhere public (like T's mast data).

Most certainly should have been told here that if you weight less than 85 kg's (used to be around 80) use righting aid or get carbon stick. I honestly thought that I could right my Blade unaided with that alu stick.
