E38 Mast Circumference

[tdtrimmer]

I need a new mast boot so am planning on making one out of vinyl. Unfortunately my 1981 E38 is 4 hours away. Does anyone know the circumference of the mast and of the mast collar?

If you can wait a day or so I'll measure mine..... RT

I can wait, no problem. Appreciate the help.

Measure mine today - - 22" just below the boot. Our E38 has a "tall rig" so I don't know how that affects the circumference.

I got 21.5 inches with just a quick measurement right above the vang.

Thanks for the help. Now I'll be ready for launch in two weeks....with a nice new mast boot.

Any idea what the circumference of the lip is on the mast collar that the boot will attach to on the deck?
