A bent my mast when i turtled it. The bend isnt huge, probably about 1-3 inches from when it suppose to be, but i feel uneasy about it. I have diamond wires on the mast but its notorious for being a bit soft. Is there a way to repair this by bending the mast in the right direction and tightening the diamond wires? I am short on cash and resources to buy or locate a new one.

What kind of boat and where is the bent part located on the mast?

Take the mast base off, pull out any plug, and fill it full of sand before trying to re-bend it otherwise it'll kink. Pete
