Mast replacement
In May the mast of my 28 came down, and for a while (until I located and retrived the old one) it looked like a replacement may be in order. For my 28, mast height of 40'-0" the salvage yards were getting between $1000.00 and 1,500.00. Fittings and spreaders extra. But on a more upbeat note I did find one in very usable condition for $300.00. Shop around, and then shop more. There are deals out there.
Hope this helps,
Frank
