If you GOOGLE “Carbon fiber masts”, you will find several manufacturers.

Rob,
Who built this mast for you. The cheapest I could find was well over $ 20,000 US.

It just occurred to me that it might be worth talking to the folks at
Tartan Yachts. A few years ago they started producing their own carbon
fiber masts. I know for a fact that they do contract work and produce
masts for other boats. If the mast is for a late model 40 I’d talk to
Freedom or to Pedrick to get some design criteria.
