C-Tech Moth products

C-Tech spars have the highest possible stiffness and strength to weight ratios and are produced to exacting standards with consistent bend curves. This is achieved by a combination of fibre selection and placement. The fibres are all high modulus prepreg carbon fibre. These are placed with no crimp (interweaving of layers) and no laps along the the taper. This greatly improves mast strength and consistency of flex curve.

The masts have relative constant curve mast flex. This means that the mast bends in a relatively even curve which enables easier tuning and a greater range of sail settings. All C-T masts come with the standard female mast plug, but you can ask of a male plug instead. Masts are supplied in 2 pieces, with the tip pre-fitted and ready to join on arrival.

We offer 3 models of mast that are all build using high modulus carbon on our 37mm mandrel. C-Tech keeps up to date with development and works with some of the top sailors in the class to continually improve performance.
