Stanchions & rudder pins

While ordering a new stanchion from "Tops In Quality", I discovered they offer J/30 rudder pins for approx $160 each. Their phone number is 800-414-2801. The J/30 knowledgeable person there is Gregg. The stanchion is about $70 +/-. On Nordic Star the top corroded away letting the top lifeline fall away at the gate. Based on comments from the Redhead this place seems to have the ability to supply some of our more obscure J/30 bits & pieces.

Spreader kit revealed


Here is the Annapolis Rigging spreader thru bar kit. Jay Herman is the contact point and you'll have better luck calling his cell at 410-493-9522. The price was $450 plus shipping. I am arrainging to have the kit installed with the mast up.
