That's an idea, just us the rig off another boat.

That's what Chris Amador did. He had an Alter cup Blade, built his current boat now, Trident, and then used the rig off of the Blade and put it on the Trident.

He worked on the Trident mostly over the winter, so there wasn't a lot of sailing time lost there, but he still was building on it during the sailing season. So, he had the option to still go out on the days during the sailing season.


If I was building a boat, I would seriously use the rig on the F16's anyway. It's way too optimized for the boat as it is to try to do something different that might not be optimized.

You can't beat the Aluminum wing mast. It's plenty tough, but bendy enough to depower when needed.
