Bigger or smaller mast? Hello, I broke my 430 SDM gaastra mast which I use it with a matrix 6.0. (458 luff) Now I'm planning to buy a 6.9 Remedy which's recommended mast is a 460. (468 luff) I do not have enough budget to buy two masts so I'm going to use one masts with these two sails and I sholuld decide between those two masts : 1) %75C gaastra RDM 430 mast 2) %75C gaastra RDM 460 mast Should I prefer using both sails with 460 or 430?

> all the write ups say sdm are better

not sure that is entirely true... up to 430 I believe many people who switch to using RDMs never go back]]> AlB GENERAL DISCUSSION Fri, 26 Aug 2011 04:05:13 +0000 http://forums.boardseekermag.com/read.php?3,6967,6987#msg-6987 Re: Bigger or smaller mast? http://forums.boardseekermag.com/read.php?3,6967,6987#msg-6987 dont follow the herd (i'm sure someone else uses that one?)]]> rdms are for sheep GENERAL DISCUSSION Thu, 25 Aug 2011 20:05:29 +0000 http://forums.boardseekermag.com/read.php?3,6967,6985#msg-6985 Re: Bigger or smaller mast? http://forums.boardseekermag.com/read.php?3,6967,6985#msg-6985
