Fiberglass rear mast cradles?

I'm the owner of sailboxes.com and currently manufacture fiberglass sailboxes and hull cradles. I was wondering if anyone is in need of a rear fiberglass mast cradle. I'm in the process of making one for my AHPC C2 and was thinking about making a mold to sell them. I made the plug from my C2, but just sold my Hobie Tiger and checked to see if it fits and it did. I'm thinking that it will prolly fit the Nacra 20's and Infusions too. Let me know what y'all think.

It's funny you mentioned the front cradle. I started making the plug for it yesterday. Will post a pic when I finish it. I'm thinking it will fit inside the 2" square tubing, that way people could cut the old metal V off and insert the new cradle then bolt it on.

This picture is very large just because thats the size i chose when uploading it. However here's how to do it, upload it to your faourite image hosting site i use imagshack.us. There should be a url under a share tab you just have to paste in. on image shack it is the letter i beside the picture (the top symbol i believe)

Kenny, I'll personally vouch to anyone the awesome craftsmanship and durability of your work!
Have you considered a pivot for the portion cradling the mast so there is complete contact between the cradle and the mast? Perhaps on front and back cradles...
Of course it'd drive engineering and price, but for a $x,xxx mast on the top boats, the extra $ is nil.
