greendane Posted February 7, 2017 Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 Hi--a long shot, but thought I would ask. Looking for aluminum masts for my Core Sound 17. Short story is the one I bought had wood, square, hollow but badly damaged. Wanting to retrofit to aluminum. More interested in sailing than building so looking for a pair within about 300 miles of Seattle area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Jones Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 I'm guessing there are perhaps three Coresound 17's in western Washington, so finding a mast is indeed a long shot. If you decide to build, On-line Metals in Seattle will have the aluminum tubing you'll need. Good luck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPower210 Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 The other option would be to talk with Alan and order a mast kit- Mine went together pretty fast, and I spend more time fairing the joints than I should have. The track that B and B is providing works slick! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greendane Posted February 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 Hi @JPower210, Alan has been great. I've got a quote for both the kit and for fully assembled and shipped. I saw where someone was possibly upgrading masts on theirs and it got me thinking that perhaps there are some out there. Thanks for the referral to Online Metals. @Randy Jones, yes long shot for sure. I'm willing to drive to as far as Oregon or Idaho if needed. I have no experience with metal work and just a little with epoxy. I don't want to mess them up and prefer already set up IF I can. So just figured I would ask...

Randy Jones Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 I understand completely. Good to see that boat heading back into action in our local waters. CS17 is an ideal boat for Puget Sound and San Juan Islands. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
