      I’m slowly restoring 889 to it’s original spec. Part of this is a wooden mast and boom. As a new one will be rather costly, if anyone has a set of wooden spars they no longer want then I’m in the market!

      Congratulations on the restoration.

       

      If there is no immediate rush for the spars,  keep an eye open on eBay;   they do occasionally crop up,  with or without boats attached.

       

      With any second-hand wooden spars of that age,  be prepared to split them along the glued joint and then clean up and remake the joint with epoxy.

       

      Good luck,

       

       

      Oliver
