Here are specs as supplied to me by Quornings for 920 tourer mast. I quote:"rig tension on DF920 touring/cruising is measured with american gauge Loos Co model PT3.
Side diamonds stays:21
forward jumper: 24

The inner diagonal diamond stay is 5mm cable is only set by hand + 2 full turns. The mast needs a curve forward a minimum of 5 and maximum 7 cm mrasured from top to the foot"

meaning the center of the mast is slightly further forward than the mast base and the mast top. Just like most other masts on regular sailboats.
