I am looking at a used Severne Overdrive from 2011. I have not been able to find a lot of details on this sail online and need some help.

1. Will it work with an RDM mast (60% carbon)?
2. Any thoughts on how a 7.5 will work with a Starboard Phantom 295?

Thank you,

Scott

RDM on Severne OD 7.5 ??
u may be better off asking on the auzzie forum
ben severne is there - as is sean o'brien

here they seem to prefer Severne SDM 90 %

is the OD 7.5 good with the SB Phantom 295 ?
my guess: as good as any freerace cambered sail on that board
lighter sailor and/or bigger winds

Overdrive and Turbo (Severnes) have a RDM Cam option. I can't remember how much but not much. I have rigged an Overdrive with the RDM cams (as well as the regular). The RDM cams are slightly more difficult to rig up vs the SDM cams, but don't let that hold you back.

The mast combo should work.

I think the sail should work well with the Phantom 295.
