Hobie 18 Mast Support

Hobie 18 Mast Support

The Mast Support is designed to be strapped between the mast and the aft crossbar. The notch on the back is supposed support the tiller bar but it is too far away on my boat. I will likely redesign this in the future. There is also some room around the mast and the crossbar to allow for some padding to be adhered to the part. The front of this is flat so that it can be printed laying on its face and not need any support. This part is best printed with top, bottom, and walls set to be over 1mm thick. I prefer the grid infill set to about 10% and the option to 'connect infill lines' selected. The Mast Support is about 8"x8" and may not fit on smaller printers.
