18FT SKIFFS |
 |
CST
have developed the No 1. and No 2. Rig, and carbon wings for the
18ft skiff, and can now supply a complete range of masts,
booms, wings, spinnaker poles and spreaders for the 18ft
skiff.
This development has already been proven in performance,
with CST masts winning the last three JJ Giltnan World
Titles in 2004, 2005 and 2006. |

Flexural rigidity is a technical term used to characterise the stiffness of
a section of beam or spar. The
higher the flexural rigidity, the less a spar will deflect when a
bending moment of load is applied. Through various winding
techniques, CST can vary the flexural rigidity profile of a tip to
give the desired bend characteristics. |

We
apply considerable time and effort into calculating the stiffness,
deflections, stresses and weights prior to production of sections.
Accurate stiffness models and resulting high production
reproducibility leads to unsurpassed mast properties. Much of the
guess work is removed and we think this is the secret of our
success.
No 1 and No 2 Rigs, Wings,
Booms, Tillers and Poles also available. Contact
us for further information. |
