The Mirror Gaff

Traditionally the Mirror is a Gunter Rig, comprising of a short mast (wood or aluminium) and a wooden gaff. The cost of getting wooden gaffs has made them uneconomical. We therefore have discontinued this product.

What to do Instead

  • Two Piece Mast - This comprises of a lower section, which is very similar to the traditional mast and an upper upper section which slides inside the upper section. This option retains the advantages of the Gunter Rig as when the mast separated it fits inside the boat.
  • One Piece Mast - These are a single piece of extruded aluminium, the same as seen on most dinghies/boats.


What do we recommend?

For most customers we recommend the two piece mast, it offers great value for money, is easily shipped due to its shorter length and can easily be swapped for your existing rig. Your existing boom will even fit the mast, or you can always buy a new alloy boom at the same time.

Our Two Piece mast comes with everything you need to go, including the rigging and the halyards. The only thing you need to add is any spinnaker equipment you may need.
