I need a boom for a H26.

We bought a 1994 Hunter 26 and as I have worked through it all, I got to one of the last steps and realized what I thought was a boom is actually a 14ft mast. I think I can make it work if I can figure out how ti attach it to the mast, but that is going to be a challenge.

Does anyone have or know of a used H26 boom for sale?

There was a post on here last week about an H260 (same hull and rig) where a guy had filled the ballast tank with cement. That boat is ruined as a trailerable sailboat. Maybe you could offer to buy the person's rig and then you would have some spare parts.

Thanks for the idea! I am working on making a gooseneck to attach this boom that is a mast to the Hunter mast. It is quite the challenge. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Finding the appropriate ends for your boom will be the long pole in the tent. Once you have those the rest is pretty straight forward.
