Thanks Jim

Jim,
Got a photo of what you seek? I've got some that are 8-10' tall.

If you can find jim's place, he apparently just leaves the keys in the door. Might be really cheap.

Sometimes I leave the lights on all night too. Nothing worse than finding a dead body weeks later :twisted:

Jim

Sorry to hijack the thread, but while we are on masts, I am in search of a set of horns for such a mast for my Conqueror. While I am sure you wont want to separate the horns on the mast shown, I am wondering if you would happen to have a set not attached to a mast that you would want to sell.

Feel free to email or post here.

Regards,

Todd

Todd,
I don't sell horns. Too many problems with them not working on arrival.

Jim,

I can understand that and respect it. Thank you anyhow though

Mast Hardware

Post by chrisfpdx » Fri Jul 01, 2011 9:39 pm

I have a 1960 36-foot Constellation that has the mast/yardarm and "wings", Jetson light, base and horns intact and in good repair. It is however missing all of the rigging/line and eyelet hardware for each side (port/stbd) of the top of the mast and 1/2 of the way down. I assume it was a stainless eyelet, but do not know for sure. Additionally, there are four small holes drilled in a small rectangular pattern about 3/4 of the way down the mast and on each side of the mast (port/stbd).

I am at a loss as to what these smaller pieces of hardware were and what the line was used for the rigging (small gauge twisted stainless?) The Mariner's Museum was not able to help as the documentation (layout/patterns) or drawings apparently do not exist nor do any descriptions of materials used.

I would appreciate any help in this regard!

Best,

Chris Finks
