Description

Traditional mast hoops for bending the luff of a gaff sail on the mast.
Made on an English boat yard from steamed ash wood ledges in layers, hot bent and oiled. Because the hoops come not glued, but only temporarily secured with a bolt, they can simply be mounted around the standing mast and riveted with the enclosed copper rivets on board.
The hoops are treated with linseed oil. We recommend to varnish or oil treat them before installation.

The inner diameter of the mast hoops should be approx. 20% larger than the maximum mast diameter.
