Now that the search engine is back online, he can! :)
Aaaanyways, I finally got one of these crooked mast bases. They're
all the 9H (I think) sort, as I've never had a crooked short one.
I got the parts from a Mr Kanehl :), so there's no clue as to their
provenance setwise--although he did have a BSB and a CC hull in
there so I'd bet it was from one of the two sets. I have the other
sets that contain one--RBR and the island set--and both of those are
"straight." AFAIK not all masts from any one set are crooked,
only some...
Actually I sometimes wish I had more, to build a ship with slightly
turned masts...
best
