black gold

When Hall Spars sadly shuttered their doors last month, I got a heads up that there was an insane amount of inventory left at the factory and all destined for scrap. All of the proprietary gear (mandrels, molds, etc) got shipped to the other Hall operations overseas, but there was some stuff that wasn’t worth shipping so I took a few trips to the factory with the truck and struck black gold.
As expected, there were several pickup loads worth of miscellaneous carbon goodies (endless C-plate, mast-base instrument hangers, new carbon spreaders for Belle Mente, even a large carbon ‘UFO’ labeled ‘Space X..) but the real prize was a stash of carbon masts & standing rigging that went unsold or unclaimed.
Turns out ground transport is pretty expensive for big masts, and I was the only one keen to anti-up! I have no idea what these things are worth on the ‘black’ market, but I just couldn’t let them get cut up and scrapped, so now they are living in my warehouse in Portsmouth, RI and seriously for sale. Not sure what they’re worth, but if you’ve always wanted a carbon stick on that McGregor 26, here’s your chance – make an offer!
