Manufacturedexclusively for H.I.T. masts of Dronten, The Netherlands, this mast is has been manufactured in the Ceilidh Composite Technologies factory since 1998.
The tooling was first utilised by Boyce Spars in the UK until H.I.T. purchased the mould and asked Ceilidh to consider the production possibilities. With a range of mid to high modulus carbon fibres with pre-impregnated thermo curing epoxy resins the Finn mast is a technical wonder with wall thicknesses varying from 3 to 14mm packed into the thinnest wing profile permitted within the Finn class rules.

The HIT Masts finn mast has secured medals at the last three olympic games, with 2000 - silver for Luca Devoti (ITA), 2004 - silver for Rafa Trujillo (ESP) and 2008 - bronze for Guillaume Florent (FRA). H.I.T. Masts also is the distributor for the Devotti finn dinghy and provides race support, new and secondhand equipment for many classes. Currently the masts are enjoying a period of top results with wins at Miami OCR 2010, Princess Sofia (Palma), and 6 in the top 10 at SOF2010 in Hyeres.
Each mast is custom built to the requirements of the sailor and sailmaker enabling a perfect combination. As a result of a consistent manufacturing process it is also simple to replicate a previously built mast to within the tollerances that are necessary for a good combination with the sail.
