Mark,
When Corsair was dismasted the quote for a new mast and boom was
$8,700. The total for new mast, rigging (running and standing), lights,
Raymarine wind head and cable, Harkin furler, antenna and cable, and
sail repairs was $16, 985.
I'll send you the Torresen Marine quote offline.

Discovered over the weekend that my mast blew off the rack at the boat
yard over the winter. Landed on a lower level rack and dented the
side of my mast - several feet above the gooseneck. Dent is maybe 5cm
long and 3cm wide - max depth of about 3mm.
Met with insurance surveyor today - he is suggesting a few options -
weld aluminum to the side of the mast, cut mast and install a sleeve,
find a used CS 30 mast or similar and replace or replace with a new
mast. Apparently the sleeve option would cause a stiff spot in the
mast and make it harder to trim well for racing (which I don't do -
but don't want to devalue the boat in the repair). Not sure about the
weld option. No immediately available used CS 30 masts locally.
Insurance has a set upper limit of $22500 on the boat - so write off
is a possibility if they can't repair or find a used option.
Anyone have any experience? Advice? Know of any random CS 30 masts
lying around???
