Johannes, it would be interesting to hear how your mast failed. What sails did you have up at the time? Did the rigging fail? Where did the mast actually break? Do not understand what you mean by mast bar. Are you talking about the spreaders, or the pivot pin at the base of the mast?

I checked out two M26 boats here in Sydney this week. One has the removeable table shown in the Marieholm web site, which mounts with two sockets in the cabin sole, and another two in the cockpit sole. The column legs lock into the sockets. marie26saloon.gif Is it possible to still buy the sockets ...
