Does anyone know what is required to get an adjustable head on a 06' np combat. i just got the sail and my 430 mast is a tad too big, it would be much cheaper 4 me to get an adjustable head than a new mast.
has anyone had any experience with replacing it, or what sail repairers charge?
cheers
Yeah....interesting how the sail makers don't seem to make 'turban heads' ie adjustable any more.
Conspiracy theory coming up
Soooooo...
are they in cahoots with mast makers (or one & same), so you have to get different mast for each sail luff size??
I have 2 sails with turban heads - so 1 mast fits 3 sails
How much is the difference?
I would not use any mast more than about 15cm too long as then you will have sail set problems.
If you want to have the std webbing cut out and an adjustable head fitted, I'd guess at maybe $50? Pretty easy job.
I agree with Mark, take it to a local sail maker, you have nothing to loose from asking.
