Surf Sail Aust is importer.

If you need cheap / secondhand / urgent - measure of course - but a mate snapped his one and I'm quite sure an Enigma fits

I can confirm the Enigma fits. Ever so slightly tighter fit, but it fits.

I left the front end of a 150-200 goya carbon skinny pro on the beach. I still have the back end, looking for a new home. It's seen a bit of use but i'd be happy to post it to you. I live in Houston Texas, so it might take a while to arrive.

I was able to order a new tailpiece .220$ ??.

Change that crappy gear and never buy Goya gear again, they make garbage. Lot of broken Goya gear here. I have 2 old Fiberspar carbon, 1 old Chinook carbon, 1 old HPL carbon and 2 old X9 carbon they are super fine never had a problem, just grip wear. New gear is made to last short...Buy smart, not new ;)

Not everyone has that experience with Goya. My Goya super skinny 150-200 from 2015 is still going strong, and my most used sail has a boom of 192 cm.

FYI Goya booms are made by Aeron, as are a few other brands (e.g. GA, Duotone EPX).

i could repair it for you. been done many times.
where are you based?

this is to all you carbon boom breakers:

send your pieces (complete!) to Melbourne where i can repair them for you. i only came across this discussion by accident. i have repaired about 10+ carbon booms and tested them myself with big jumps and forwards. as good or stronger than before. i use customised carbon pins on the inside and then rebuild the original carbon in too. proven method. pm me for details. with a new boom around a grand it is worth trying a repair which would be max a quarter of that depending on complexity of the repair. they come out as stiff as before and i provide a confident warranty period!
