According to the CTOA ratings:

if I'm reading this correctly, the rotating mast costs 6 sec/mile. If you look at the numbers there at the website, you'll get a feel for what different mods should do to rating, ergo speed.


Cost of the stick...I would imagine, should I have the extremely bad luck to break the damn thing, (-knock-knock-bang-bang-on-wood, eew I hope I didn't jinx m'self) it would be in the minimum $20K range to replace the mast. (G.Zeus, I don't even wanna think about it.)

You should know that rigging time and hassle are greatly increased for me. We don't take Miz B out nearly as often as we would if she were stock, I expect. See attached pic of our gin pole. Husband is 6'1"

My boat is weird (very weird.), F27F (Formula) owners can give you a better idea of what you'll encounter
