Peter,

Well, I probably sail at least 70 days per year on my gear not counting travel rentals, so key factor may be stress. I don't get much air, at least on purpose :), and only weigh 185.

Still, it would be hard to re-stock every couple of years, unless forced to by breakage or obvious wear. Maybe that's the implication? I just can't see abandoning masts that "look" OK. OTOH, my one experience with mast break this year is not something I want to repeat. I've had worse luck with fins, having one just fail and two snapped off by Kona coral heads, but that seems easier to deal with usually.

        David
