Hi forumites, I wish to make a new mast (if this is the correct term) for my boat. When we purchased the boat this was not fitted although the mounting bracket is there. The mast i mean is normally i think a cross shape, what is the correct name for this mast / pole where i can fit the navigation lights etc and would this normally be made from hardwood. Does anyone know where i can view examples of these so that i know what to make, ours needs to be approximately 1.3 metres high. When doing internet searches i am only finding sailing boat masts so maybe there is a special name for this on a cabin cruiser type boat ?
