Congratulations to Pieter Jan Postma (NED) on his Bronze medal at a challenging Finn Gold Cup recently. Sailing with our latest design of the Finn mast PRO his superior boat speed helped in the shifty conditions at the event. Also our congratulations to Rafa Trujillo (ESP) who won every race at the Finn Masters World Championships in Torbole sailing with our PRO design. Vladimir Krutskikh (RUS) was a worthy second with a HIT Mast Classic scoring 2 points more than Trujillo over the series.

The new design introduces major changes to the bend curve and dynamic working of the mast. While still in the test phase, the results show that the HIT mast PRO designed and manufactured by Ceilidh Composite Technologies is performing as planned, giving more control upwind with added power downwind.

With one day to go and the possibility of only the medal race to sail Pieter-Jan Postma (NED 842) is in a good position in the total classification. This winter Ceilidh Composite Technologies has further developed the HIT Masts finn dinghy mast with some significant changes to the overall dynamics of the mast-sail combination. Further news will follow from the seller of the HIT Mast Finn dinghy masts Dinghy Racing Centre.
