C-Tech Flying Dutchman masts

C-Tech's Flying Dutchman masts are manufactured from pre-preg carbon fibre.  Products can be exported world-wide via airfreight or seafreight.  Masts are supplied in 2 pieces, with the tip pre-fitted and ready to join on arrival.  

Norman Rydge and Richard Scarr placed third in January 09 using a C-Tech carbon mast in the 2008 International Flying Dutchman Class, Open World Championships in Napier, NZ.

What is a Flying Dutchman?

The Flying Dutchman class was born in Holland in 1952 initially with a limitation to be raced on lakes.  This limitation was soon lifted and fleets spread worldwide.  The FD lost its Olympic status in 1992 but remains today a realistic option for those without Olympic ambitions and numbers at World and European Championships remain high.
