    The Contender has switched to carbon masts. You might be able to get a cheap pre-loved aluminium rig in Europe. Rig manufacturers are Goldspars in Australia and Wavelength in the UK. Have a look at www.sailingsource.com/contender for mre info. There are a few Contenders in the US but mainly on the east coast I think.

    Cheers,
