Ha - thanks! I was having one of those moments where you sit staring at the keyboard with a word somewhere in the back of your mind but refusing to make its way through the fog ...

Those articles on *how* to refurbish a spar are interesting but what I was really hoping for was a price, to the last dollar - or at least within half an order of magnitude or the eventual load on my pocket Given that I haven't done this before I would like to assist professionals if possible.

The mast is probably the boats original (26 years old) and has done at least two crossings between west coast US and Hawaii. The photos above show the only things we found not in "bristol" condition.
