What this video covers
Sven Yrvind installs G11 epoxy laminate tubes to serve as mast holders for his boat.2:06 He positions four tubes to accommodate three Europe dinghy masts, arranging them so the mast configuration functions similarly to a yawl rig.5:50 The design includes a drainage system at the base of the holders to prevent water accumulation.2:43 Yrvind cuts the tubes to specific lengths to ensure they fit securely within the boat's structure, noting that the G11 material is difficult to source in the required dimensions.7:08 He confirms the final layout places the rotor axis forward of the aft mast, with the remaining masts distributed to balance the rig.6:26 The installation process resolves his previous concerns regarding the structural support for the mast setup.7:20
