As one of the major suppliers to the OK class it is unsurprising that Ceilidh Masts were at the forefront of the recent OK World Championships 2026 held in Denmark.
Our warm congratulations to everyone who sailed, especially Johan Schubert (DEN) who became the first Danish OK Dinghy World Champion since 1980. Wannes van Laer (BEL) who took silver in his first ever OK event and Matt Howard (GBR) who completed the podium.
Interestingly the top 3 all used different sail manufacturers, with masts specifically tailored to the design preferences of each manufacturer. The differences are small, but at Ceilidh the aim is to build masts that suit the sail designs, and not have the sailmakers struggling with the curves we produce.
