Hi,

I have a 430 ART Joystick 90% Carbon SDM at home (constant curve) ICMS 21, 1.8kg and I am wondering if anyone has a clue/experience about sails that it could work with? Apparently, they discontinued the brand in about 2000/2001 so my hopes are not high, but maybe someone has a pointer? The mast is in good condition and would be a shame not to put it to use.

I have a 490 Art SDM race mast. It has 12% bend curve. Your 430 may be different. To be sure you would have to measure it.

Thanks, that's a great insight. I used it in a NP soul which I thought was fine at the time but then I again back then I wasn't even aware that masts could be incompatible with certain sails.

Strange thing is that it says constant curve and NP sails are not constant curve, or have they simply changed over time?
