Thank you for the reply. I find that the masts ( as I have the booms) are extruded aluminum with an aerodynamic shape and a slit down the aft side for threading of the sail.I would think this is a specialized item at 1:20 scale. I will try the web address you have supplied. I have concluded because of adhesive problems that the bulkwarks will have to be fashioned from wood and applied molding.I realize that my requests are a reach as this kit is out of production for some 6 years. Many thanks.

Wow, I just received an e-mail from Krick Manufacturing in Germany. They apparently bought out the Robbe business when it went "belly up". The masts will be included in a shipment to Ages of Sail in California who I had contacted some weeks prior with little hope they would be able to help. Wonders never cease.
