as you may noticed, some of us use the Unifiber mast selector charts
they go year by year
www.unifiber.net/masts-selector
www.unifiber.net/2014/mast-selector
and
www.unifiber.net/2015/mast-selector

interestingly enough, the 2013 Gorilla RDM seems to have been slightly more hard top in 2013 than 2014 & 2015
but that difference is insignificant

the change MauiSails made from 2013 is NOT insignificant
and luff lengths are getting shorter too - MS that is ...

Yes thank you, I know the unifiber charts but i don't know about the truthfulness of them.
Seems the bend curve had a little change...But it really happened? This is the question...

before Barn does a wobbly about this just do a search first and you will find that severne have said before that NO the masts have never changed.

I'm waiting for someone to frame that Unifibre chart and give it to me for Christmas!

Whatever the case, the curve has not changed. Everything is backwards compatible. Reading between the lines, there is no denying that there can be some variances between individual masts.

Getting the masts out in the market is one of the first steps to selling the sails, it'd be madness to change the mast curve, especially the Gorilla!

The 2015 sails will work in the older masts, and vice versa.
