I am in the market for a used c-scow and in my reading about the boats there is a lot of talk about old verses new when it comes to mast types.  How do I identify it the boat has a newer type mast verses the older aluminum masts.  This seems important when it comes to sailing techniques.

One quick way to identify many of the older masts is to notice the sliding rail for the boom. The newer masts have a fixed connection. Secondly, the new mast finish was silver, at least until last year, so the vast majority of black spars belong to the older generation.
