An Introduction to Masts
Unfortunately, many customers come to Collars when something has gone wrong, whether as a result of an accident, failure or simply neglect. Speaking to us about a new mast is not nearly as daunting as it might first appear. We aim to handle the whole process, but at the same time welcome as much input from the client as possible. Although a like for like replacement is often required, we need to establish why the original mast failed, and look at possible options to improve the spar, both in terms of construction, as well as the systems and fittings.

Classic Drawings
Over the last 80 years we have no doubt produced masts for nearly every dinghy class that has ever been built. As a result of this, we have archives of drawings built up over the years, ranging from full A0 Fairey Aviation plans to scraps of paper with successful rig designs on for development classes, such as the International 14.
​
We hold a small selection of the more popular small boat designs, and even if your class is not listed, there is a very good chance we could find it somewhere in our archives.
It was a pleasure dealing with you and the depth of knowledge and experience was plain to see.
