columbia 9.6 mast

looking to buy a nice columbia 1976 9.6.
the tapered mast has a curve to the stern vary even although was still there after the back stay was un loaded. Did not unload the lowers, so maybe that is part of the curve , or the mast is made that way?
thanks for help

mitiempo will become famous soon enough
It is not made that way but the forward lowers will pull the mid section forward if desired.
