About this work

Round mast with square top. The mast itself consists of eight parts: two heavy ones, one front and one back, form the masthead, connected inside with welds; three sides on each side, of which the middle one is also connected to the masthead with welds, round off the whole. The parts are held together by hoops. At the level of the topgallant yard and the topgallant yard, the mast becomes square; above that, the corners are slightly rounded. In terms of composition, this mast is comparable to NG-MC-126. This model can be disassembled.
