Thanks guys I think I found the right supplier in the list you gave me.

The project is a swim platform/trampoline for the back of the cat. Last season the experience of getting out of the water wasn't great for kids and grandparents so I'm trying to make it more pleasant, while also giving people a place to rest when swimming. It also needs to be easily raised out of the water to form a net/pushpit. I get very nervous when kids or pets go near the stern when underway so it will have two jobs.
Using mast/spar section is convenient for strength/corrosion/weight but also means the net that forms the centre of the hammock will attach in the channel. This will be more comfortable for the backs of knees and soles of feet. Hope that makes sense.
