allspars
have first hand experience of sailing and racing many of the local
fleets of Dayboats and One Design Classes. As a result we are main
agents for the more popular classes, as follows:-
Dragon Holt mast - this mast
used to be sold by Petticrows and was the class standard for many, many
years. We offer this mast now with the Holt/allspars label and can be
supplied in various states of completion. Whether you are trying to
rebuild an old classic and reuse some existing fittings or wish to have
a complete championship winning specification mast, we can customise
for you. allspars
Proprietor, Andy Postle, was heavily involved in the rebuild of a 1952
Camper & Nicholson Dragon "Buccaneer", GBR256, which included a
new rig and complete fit out. Andy and crew then went on to finish 7th
at the Edinburgh Cup. Fife one design
We have recently developed a really quick mast for this fleet of open
day keel boats based in the Menai Straits between Anglesey and North
Wales. We have developed a mast with a tapered topmast
giving good gust response and ease of handling, which on a boat with no
kicker/vang, is important as you don't want to be letting the mainsheet
in and out on every gust. The latest design work and
fittings has also enabled us to save a lot of weight, compared to the
original masts. The classic shape of our section also means it looks
really good in this classic little yacht, in the same way as it does in
the dragon. We have also just put the finishing
touches to the specification of a new mast for the Swallow
class. Please contact us for this new spec and latest prices.

Squib
Holt Mast - the class favourite for the lighter crews. We stock a
complete championship specification rig for immediate despatch, along
with tuning advice! We also have the Selden mast - stiffer than the
Holt section, for the larger crew! J24
Selden masts, booms and poles are held in stock, in our Plymouth
workshops available for immediate despatch. We also hold in
stock, made up rigging sets, which use the Ronstan calibrated rigging
screws including the handle kits for easy and quick adjustments of your
rigging, pre-race. The new Selden boom is so much stiffer
than the older style Selden or Kenyon booms, which does make it much
easier to trim the mainsail and keep the leech profile how you want it.

- Ajaxs' - Cork 1720's Years of experience sailing and
fitting rigs to all these classes gives us an enviable reputation for
service and advice to get you sailing fast. Whether you just require a
halyard or a shroud, mast, boom, spinnaker pole or a complete new rig,
we have the experience to help you quickly and efficiently.
Another of our successful little projects, has been the rigs
for Cornish crabbers classic little dayboat -The
Piper. This lovely boat has been created from the one design
fleet in Scotland and conforms to the strict one design rules of that
fleet. Within these rules we have created a mast and rigging system
that is again, light, responsive and incredibly neat in its
engineering. It can easily be retrofitted to any of the original fleet,
racing in Scotland. All of these day
boat spars are easily recognised, as they are usually black anodised.
