Change of the Sailings molds. These are now also produced from one piece with the new mold technology.

Stracke's masts always attracted attention through outstanding sporting success. After winning the Travemünder Woche and the Ostseecup with one of his products, interest increased significantly and more and more masts, mainbooms and spinnaker trees were used in the Lübeck area and on the surrounding lakes.

In the same year, the first trade show appearance under the new name CUL-Masten (Carbon Ultra Light Masten) at the Hanseboot in Hamburg was impressive.

Due to the extremely satisfactory results of the first masts, this new technique was further optimized. The production of three more mast shapes as well as molds for spinnaker trees was henceforth carried out on the basis of the recently developed mold technology. The production of masts and trees was now continued at a higher level.

Further development of mold technology: Based on the experience gained from production with the negative mold, production on the basis of a positive mold with an integrated groove proved to be much more advanced, and so the company switched completely to the improved design.

After a long planning phase, the first model was created. The mold was made from two half shells. After several improvements, the first prototype was created. By the way, this mast passed the test of time and sails continuously for over 20 years until today.
