Hit pretty hard last year in hurricane Wilma. House is finally done, now its time to fix my poor boat which was dismasted in the blow.

Looking for C-25 standard rig, prefer interior halyards. Really just need the spar, have all the other hardware.

Update - BTW, Catalina Yachts confirmed they have sold their last replacement spar.

All help appreciated.

I am the Skipper of Sea Scout Ship 5790 in Norman, Oklahoma.
We just acquired a Catalina 25 with a broken mast.
If you have any leads on one in our part of the country, could you contact me? Please.

Catalina Direct lists masts on their website. They offer both complete masts (approx $1,200.00) or just the extrusions (approx $700.00).

In one of your first posts you said you contacted Catalina Direct and a previous poster mentioned Catalina Yachts. If you were unaware, they are not the same company. Catalina Direct does indeed have one listed on the website for 649 and change. Maybe both you and the original poster called the same place maybe not, but it might be worth two more phone calls.

It is tough to find so here is the direct link to C-Directs mast

http://www.catalinadirect.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=791


If that doesn’t work here are a few more ideas:


I have a mast that comes with a boat. You can pick it up for around 7800.

Have you tried contacting any of these locations?

http://www.charleston-spar.com/us/default.asp

http://www.dwyermast.com/families.asp?cat1ID=20&cat1Name=Masts

You could probably get an extrusion (especially from Dwyer) then put the rest of the parts together. You might need to get a different masthead and new rigging since it might not fit exactly. Possibly even a new step.

Start getting the cookies together for the bake sale and the merit badges for the work they will have to do.


note: I have not dealt with any of the latter two companies.

Looks like your spar might be at Shelter Cove Marina. Along with a few other spare parts Check out the posting in Swap Meet

That was my thought exactly John. .... pick that thing up for less than 1500, ravage her for the parts and sell her for 1500 without a mast. Note even if that boat at Sheleter Cove is a Tall rig, everything is set to rig for both types of mast.

Bruce,
All I need is the mast. And I do not want to bring the San Diego boat back to Oklahoma.

Has anyone ever tried to use a Catalina 27 mast on a Catalina 25? I know that it is taller and thicker, but do you think it would work?

Try Redbud Marina at Oolagaha Lake 30 min NE of Tulsa, they are a Catalina dealer and could find what you need and have it shipped for you. Just an idea.

Has anyone any information pertaining fixing a mast by putting an insert into the mast and heliarching it together? I've been told that it might work. Our break is just above the boom. I have not had any luck finding a used Catalina mast and the dealers want $27 per foot for an extrusion.

I can't remember where, but I read that a tall rig 25's mast and a C27's are the same extrusion.
