Hi
Severne blade 4,7 is established by the manufacturer to use a 400 mast but I don't want to travel with so much stuff.
Does somebody use it with a 370 mast? Which is the experience?
Thanks
I regularly use a 370 on an older 2017-18 4.5 Blade, think the luff says 403cm. It works with 32-34cm on the extension and I wouldn't want any less downhaul. Goes better with a 400 if I'm honest with myself.
Could be OK if 4.7 is your light-wind sail but might be pushing the limits of a 36cm extension if you're heading out in waves of consequence or need to crank up the downhaul.
It will feel a bit softer if you have an extension long enough. Masts don't take up much space so I'd take both. As a bonus, you have a spare.
