HIT masts by
The HIT wing mast has been developed continuously over the last 5 years together with Ceilidh Composite Technologies B.V. who are also known for their Europe mast successes.
Manufactured in an aluminium mould with advanced pre-impregnated materials, HIT masts are proven performers on the international scene.
More than 1000 HIT masts have been distributed and are used by some of the best Finn sailors around the globe.
HIT masts are customised for the helmsman. Weight and sailing experience is a major issue when customising the mast for speed and sail handling.
Wilke masts
"For me, Wilke masts are currently the best you can get. I would recommend a Wilke mast to all but my hardest opponents"
Ben Ainslie, Olympic Champion 2004 and 2008 and 5 times World Champion.
To date, more than 700 Finn Wing masts of the new generation have been delivered by Wilke. The success can be seen on all major regattas - worldwide.
Wilke masts are manufactured using pre-impregnated carbon from the Advanced Composites Group, one of the leading Prepreg manufacturers. A Finn mast, that possesses the exact bending, twisting and dynamic behaviour that an athlete asks for is the result of a careful selection of the carbon fibre, the resin type and content, as well as a sophisticated layup. The quality management at Wilke Swiss Marine Composites ensures that the strict tolerances in the manufacturing process are met.
Based on the experience of over 700 built masts and the feedback of European, world and Olympic champions, Wilke are able to tailor a mast exactly to your needs. The Wilke mast is the choice of champions.
