[Public-List] Masthead

[Glennb]

Hi Randy, 

I am also looking to replace my masthead fitting.  are you having yours machined out of solid stock or welded up?  Would your yard do a second one if I sent my mast dimensions?

Don't know why the bavstay fitting is higher... Maybe to compensate for springing the mast aft when setting up tension??

Cheers
