Wood Mast for 1954 D-Scow

[RHHOTROD]

HI,
I have a 1954 Johnson Boat Works D-Scow.
I'm in need of a good mast for the boat.
I'm not sure if one from a C or A could work or be adapted to work
Unlike a C the D-Scow has a Jib

I do have a mast however due to unfortunate circumstances it is no longer usable
However all the hardware from it is usable and I can retrofit any mast in usable condition that might work.

I will consider an aluminum mast but obviously vintage would be preferred

Any help or information would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
RH

Paging @jon hansen in case he has any leads.

Thank You So Much...
I have not yet figured out if an E-Scow or C-Scow mast could work?
This one is about 30' long
If it's about the same length I could probably make it work out

Can the mast be repaired or rebuilt? A competent Millwright shop might be able to help.

"Ds" were hand made wood scows from the builder that started the sailing scow race boat game. they came with a lemonade finish. a little yellow tint in the varnish.

they had jibs.

would one put a chevy engine in his 32 ford? i suppose some might. the OP lives in scow country. either fix the mast or build a new one. it's an old wood boat. old wood boat skills will be used to keep it floating. a mast is there fore no big deal.

their are guys up your way that can shed some light on your needs.
