Pin and bracket

Post by TimR »

Hello to all,

I am the pround new owner of a C-22. Like many of you have done, I am starting a restoration of the boat. Has anyone found a source for the keel brackets and pin. Any information would be much appreciated.

If you have not seen it yet look under the Keel section of the sailing discussion, there is sure to be information that can help you there.

Or under drawings, I did a set of drawings that a shop should be able to use to make some for you.

Tim,

Here is a link to a photo page of my c22. You can see the brackets I made, might be a tad overbuilt but I'm happy how they turned out. I welded in studs rather than using bolts. That eliminated 10 extra places to leak. I can provide a drawing too, but it would be nearly identical to the one posted here. Unfortunately Chrysler used a shotgun to locate the holes for the bolts. No two are exactly alike, so you must transfer the holes from your existing brackets.

N41EF, sounds like an aircraft registration number? What are you flying?

Tim,
I am in the middle of a restoration myself. I took the before mentioned drawings to my fabrication guy a couple months back and he is creating them for me. I let him do it at his leisure over the winter months and it saves me a few bucks. From all the research I did, this is the only way to obtain new brackets & pin for these boats. I have my current repairs detailed on my blog. I''ll soon have the bracket and pin posted. Welcome aboard & please share your progress.

Cheers!
Best Wishes,

Corey
