Hi

I have some problems with the provider. I hope I can clear it shortly.?

I have many customers I am working with via email. I do not know
which boat you are interested in.
The carbon mast plans are a part of the DUO 800 plans. I have no other ones.
Because of the boundary layer effect the wind at the top of the sail is more regular and has a higher speed. The square top sail picks up this wind and uses this to power the boat better. The drawback of real square tops is that these cannot be controlled as with a gaff sail, for instance.
