<p>Hi, I am currently in the process of sourcing aluminium tubes for masts for my Tiki 38. Two 11m long tubes 140mm dia 4mm wall thickness is too small order to process. If anyone would be interested to join in we could place a bigger order and get them made. This would also get the price down. I am based in Poland. Shipping to elsewhere could get organized I suppose.</p>

<p>Hi All.</p>
<p>Advice needed.</p>
<p>Have just rebuilt my back wooden mast, bottom 2.4 meters was rotten, it's a long story and i will post the rebuild images online and description soon. The results are great !</p>
<p>Have just got to the stage were I am about to put the finishing coats on when I find that there are many 20 meter lengths of 200mmOD, 10mm wall aluminum extruded pipe lying a few hundred meters away that the marina management would like to get rid of.</p>

<p>Hi All.</p>
<p>Advice needed.</p>
<p>Have just rebuilt my back wooden mast, bottom 2.4 meters was rotten, it's a long story and i will post the rebuild images online and description soon. The results are great !</p>
<p>Have just got to the stage were I am about to put the finishing coats on when I find that there are many 20 meter lengths of 200mmOD, 10mm wall aluminum extruded pipe lying a few hundred meters away that the marina management would like to get rid of.</p>
<p>Questions I have are:</p>
<p>My masts are a heavy meranti, and reasonably stiff.<br/>Would I need to stiffen up the aluminum masts?</p>
<p>Does anyone have the Wharram mast size chart and can tell me whether 200mm ond 10 mm walls are suitable for a 15m mast.</p>
<p>Any past negative experience with aluminium masts?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Regards</p>
