Saarberg seems to think that 1.1 kg per mtr is a realistic minimal weight for a sloop rigged spi equipped carbon mast. => comes out at tip weight 5.5 kg = about where Stealth Masts are.

I got thinking and before I spend alot of time chasing down mastbuilders etc it may be wise to hold a first voting and let the follow-up be guided by that.

So here is a simple vote.

Please only F16 sailors voting in this one. So only owners of F16's and Taipan 4.9 [color:"red"] WITH [/color] a spinnaker setup and who do sail occasionally in the configuration.
