Mast Collar at Partners

Ahoy All , does anyone know if the white plastic collar , that covers the partners aluminium ring , is still available , from Forespar ?

Douglas, is it a mast boot? If it is there some very good alternatives

Ahoy Gary , Yes , it could be called a mast boot . The Forespar white plastic boot / collar has lasted since 1985 , and I have had no trouble with it .

I would like to read / hear about good alternatives, as well .

T Y for your reply ,

I used this mast boot on Shanti. Simple clean install, works great.

Adventure’s got the same one.
When we re-stepped the mast I forgot to put the original one back on the mast before dropping her through the partners and connecting the rig…really didn’t feel like taking it all apart again.

I wonder how many times that’s happened.

Don’t know why this post has repeated - sorry !

Still get a slight leakage through the mast track somehow when it rains.

I wouldn’t have bothered to mention this in a separate post, but there doesn’t seem to be a mechanism for deleting the three repeats of my mast boot posting so I’m editing it instead!
