Gebhard-

I have never seen the "smaller" section but I was told by James Sage (Aus Taipan 4.9 cat rig National Champ) that their were 2 sections available with one being the Auswing and the larger (standard sloop and front beam) being the Superwing sections. He indicated to me the Auswing DID have a smaller section- it was shorter fore-aft than the Superwing and it was lighter. He further told me I could tell which I had by comparing my mast to my forebeam- If it was the same dimensions it was the Superwing (which he actually felt was better personally) if shorter it was the standard Auswing-

Perhaps an Aussie could fill us in on the details or else Goodall's? I did not know the smaller section was no longer available anywhere- It was not offered here in the US that I know of on the 4.9's.



Have a Merry Christmas!
