Its unfortunate to announce Blue Peter was in a collision with High Tide ( a doufour 34) during a regatta in antigua. The mast of high tide landed on blue peter nearly hitting the crew. High tide was found at fault. But our mast is standing somehow. But it is cracked and buckled in many spots. how or where can I get a mast before sailing week. We already missed heineken regatta. any help would be great. Also we don't need to be class legal.

Tanner - that really sucks! You might want to contact Ri-Rite - www.RigRite.com Phone (001) 401-739-1140 - they previously had some mast sections in stock

It's in Rhode Island so I don't know what shipping would be to Antigua. Small world - last fall I met one of the guys who sailed with you working at the boatyard I store my boat here in New England. He does fiberglass work but I forget his name.

Hi Any chance you are still looking for a Mast? I have one along with a boom and anything else you might need for rigging. I am in Southern Cal, but I am thinking about driving cross country and might be able to bring it along or maybe we could figure something out.
