The mast has had some much intended stiffening. I have added diamonds for some lateral support and will add a forestay to prevent excessive for and aft bend also. The Zip needed to be broken into three parts to make the sail removable for the rules but it never gets used anyway.
It will add complication and windage but if the sail is better behaved over a wider range of winds strengths then it will be worth it.
Likely first outing is the Squaddie Brass Monkey regatta or at least the Canoe Nationals in Albury in October.
Have spent the last month painting my big boat, 25ft Breakfast. Kept me busy.
