Next-Level Aero Performance: The New CST Airdrop Mast and Boom

The latest CST Airdrop mast and boom represent a significant leap in aero performance and design. By leveraging Ultra High Modulus (UHM) fibre, CST has achieved a 17% reduction in frontal area for the mast, creating the skinniest mast available on the market. This advanced design not only enhances performance but also introduces a host of features aimed at making rigging faster and easier.

Here’s a detailed look at what makes the new CST Airdrop mast a game-changer in the market.

    

Advanced Mast Design

The new CST Airdrop mast is distinguished by its ultra-skinny profile, achieved through the use of Ultra High Modulus Fibre (UHM). This material's exceptional stiffness-to-weight ratio has allowed for a significant reduction in frontal area, which directly contributes to lower drag and improved speed. The mast's design innovations include:

  • Dimensions: The ultra slim profile has a 17% reduction in frontal area making the CST Airdrop mast the skinniest on the market and setting a new benchmark for mast design.
  • Integrated precision joint: This feature allows sailors to mix and match base and tip options with unparalleled precision as well as eliminating the need for tape due to its new locking design.
  • Quick release pin & pulley: The new spreader fitting features a captured quick release pin & pulley system for adjustable spreaders. This design facilitates easy adjustments and makes rigging quick.
  • Forestay: Upgraded forestay fittings ensure a more secure connection.
  • Quick release gooseneck fitting: The gooseneck fitting now features a quick release mechanism, simplifying the process of connecting and disconnecting the boom. This feature further accelerates rigging and de-rigging times.
  • Interactive online store: CST's user-friendly online platform enables sailors to select the specific base and tips they require, streamlining the purchasing process.

Enhanced Boom Performance

The new Airdrop boom focuses on both aerodynamic efficiency and weight reduction. Key advancements include:

  • Double tapered design: The boom's double tapered profile further minimizes drag by tucking in behind the mast, enhancing the overall aerodynamic performance.
  • Significant weight reduction: By utilizing UHM fibre, the boom has achieved a remarkable 450g reduction in weight.
  • Gooseneck: The boom has a precision pin permanently mounted at the gooseneck end to integrate with the masts quick release feature. This removes the frustration of dealing with nuts and bolts and makes rigging easy.
  • Outhaul: The outhaul has an extended slot to deal with long and short footed sails and incorporates and integrated calibration scale for precise settings.

Through our commitment to in-house tooling, testing, and continuous advancements we ensure that the new range of CST masts and booms offer superior quality, repeatability and set a new benchmark for mast and boom design.
