My windscreen wipers are like new Donal, Even have a manual over
ride.
My 120 hp Ford english Bowman conversion purrrs like a litten and
run
as cool as a a glass of Lousiana Ice Tea.

However my mast has never been painted. I wonder if it's worth the
effort seeing mast after mast in the yard having thousands and
thousand's of dollars spent having them painted.

What is your opinion on painting the mast? Is your bent-A-toe's
mast
painted?

My opinion is quite simple..... If it has windscreen wipers ...
then it
isn't a sailboat.

Thats because your experience is limitd to cheap production boats.

Your sailing experience won't be affected at all by the paint on your
mast.


And your boat won't be affect by quality.


In fact, I think the you would go faster if you got rid of the mast.

Its about maintaining hull speed at all times unless I prefer to move
slower. Don't be so jelious Donal.
