Weakness/structural fault at mast compression?
Hi forum,
I am looking at a Mahe 36 Evolution from 2015, and noticed some gelcoat cracks on both sides of the mast base.
After looking from below it looks like the cracks are not "just" superficial gelcoat cracks, as I can see some cracks from below as well.
See attached photos!
Is there known weakness of the Mahe 36 mast compression post?
Any/all input appreciated.
Thanks a lot!
