Hi Jeff,

As I recently retired from work I finally have the time to take care of my projects.

I am actually building new beams for my Nacra 5.5 with 10.5ft wide, 100x3mm beams, F18 rig and daggerboards.

As my F18 mast has a Taipan/Goodall mast base with cup, I want to build the cone and striker post in the same fashion. But will not use the hinge. Have had contact with Andrew McPherson and got advices from him, but I would really like to see how it is made IRL.

I´d really like to see how the post with cone is adopted to the beam. Will also add the C2 tensioning bolt at the bottom of the striker post. and would like better images than in the C2&Viper manual.

Will be grateful if you can supply a few images.

This is my guesswork, please correct my mistakes:
