Confirmed.. and if you decide to go on a trip to Friedrichshafen this 
year (as I'll do..), visit Mr Spieth at his booth - die altbekannten 
"Spieth-Masten" gibt's dort manchmal zu Messepreisen.
And there is also a more rugged version with metal rings (also from the 
competitors), which are said to prevent collapsing when the mast gets 
hot in the midday sun. I have an older one, the more affordable 17 meter 
version, which sometimes collapses at high noon after being lifted up on 
a cold morning.
Cheers,
 Wolf .
