Maugan,



You won't get much from an aluminum recycling facility - probably considerably less than $10. The masts are so expensive because of the length and straightness of the extrusion and the process to make/anodize it...not the material involved.



I've got a friend who came up with (or at least used) a neat idea to use pieces of old masts as regatta trophies. It wouldn't be worth it to ship it but if you are nearby, we (I) would give you more than a recycler would. Where are you located?
