Which is worse, to use a 21 IMCS on a 7.5+, or a 25 IMCS on a 6.5??

I want one blueline for all my severnes, but not sure if better to have a 430 (21) and use an extender for my 7.5's, or have a 460 (25), which will take my 6.5's....

What do you tip the scales at? if heavy go the stiff mast, if light go soft.

Ue the reccommended mast on the sail you'll use most and have a slight compromise on the other.

Search forums for 'Severne', look for post by Ben entitled 'sailor of the day' then click email link.

Probably best to include other details such as model/year of sails, conditions you usually sail in (flat or choppy water, ocean or river) etc.

Also, what masts are you using at present?
