* We also have 2 one-piece RED masts and a one-piece BLUE mast.  Unfortunately none of the bottom rigging pieces fit into these masts, the inner dia is too small.  If we want to use these masts, we need different bottom pieces (the one with 4 pulleys and a clam cleat)

We had accidentally confused the kiddie mast with a top-piece for the other masts and were occasionally putting the kiddie on TOP of a bottom piece!  Although this DOES work somewhat, it isn't necessary, so I recommend that we do NOT do this.  The two kiddie sails have been stashed out-of-view behind the boats.

Kiddie Sails

We have 2 complete sets for 3.0 m sails. They appear to be in great condition.

Booms

  • Blue-and-yellow: 4x
    • Three are interchangeable between the 4.5 and 5.5
    • One of the blue-and-yellow booms is frozen in the 5.5 length (do not use for a 4.5)
  • Big Black : The big black boom with lots of duct tape stays with the 7.5
  • Red/Black: The new red/black boom can be used with the 6.5

Blocks

  • Mast Base Extension (w/Downhaul): We have 4 Mast base extensions ('bottom rigging pieces') as well as one which is built-in to one of the extensions. These appear to be in great shape.
  • Mast Head: We have 4 mast heads ('top rigging pieces') which all appear to be in good shape. The 6.5, 7.0, and 7.5 sails have mast heads built in the sail.

Other

  • Harnesses: We have a few harnesses in decent/poor shape. They're not pretty, but they seem functional
  • Misc: We have some miscellaneous foot straps and other hardware.
  • Bag: We have a "board bag" made for a 295 board. Stashed in with sail bags on top shelf in back of Bay 4
