On Hobie comp tip masts, the lower 3/4 of the mast is black anodized aluminum. The top of the mast is fiberglass (called a "comp tip"), It is not for performance, but rather part of a settlement for a law suit by family of someone who wheeled the boat with mast up in to power lines.
The cat-alist schedule is more detailed because it is a combination of the ORCA specific events, Hobie Division 16 and Hobie Division 11 regattas. Some Division 11 regattas are possible when driving from Toronto. Why? As there are less events in Hobie Division 16 but especially because the level of competition is high so you can sharpen your teeth!
