I am helping some 10 year old students with designing and building a land yacht (similar to www.blokart.com).
If anyone has an old complete rig or sail or boom or mast that they do not use which they would like to donate (or sell for a notional amount) to the project the kids will be very grateful.
Please call me on 96484380 if you are able to help. I can collect.
Thanks
Stuart

Pardon my asking, but how do you propose to sail that contraption in Singapore?  We don't have enough wind inland.

The big fields in Punggol area can possibly be an avenue and also the new Changi Exhibition Area where this year Air Show is held. Both areas are well exposed to wind during NE monsoon period.
