R-21

I just purchased one as my first also. Good luck finding info out there. They seem to be a well known/repected boat just not much info since they habven't made since about 1980. Wing Z started making some off of the R-21 hulls but they folded. I've tried to contact them over and over trying to get the dimensions of the collasible crossbeams they use.

It would be much quicker to launch and retrive if we could just leave the crossbeams attached instead of having to remove them.

Does your boat have a "mast section" front crossbeam. I initially thought someone just used it but after dropping a contour comb into the hull it is mast shaped.

Hey very cool where r u sailing at?
Yes. collasible crossbeams. Would be cool. I don't know what u mean. About the mast?
It has a swivel cub that it sits in. The mast has a ball on it. It would be nice too. To have a mast stepping system too. So we need to stick together here. Where did u find yours at?? Very cool

mast

The front crossbeam is a small mast section. I've tried Randy several times with no luck. Also tried Charles at 760 945 9161 with no luck. We usedx to build fiberglass boats so would be interested in buying the molds from Wing-Z but can't get any contact.
