70's Man O'War Parts/Advice Needed

Post by rcwaszak »

Hi all,
New to this forum and Chrysler sailboats. I have a 1970's Man O' War that's been sitting in the side yard for 30 years and I'm getting it ready for sailing and/or saleing. Missing parts: corner connectors that join side gunwale rub rails to transom rub rail (see image); rudder pintle; daggerboard wedge; transom drain plug, sail battens. Any suggestions on substitutions or fixes? I've read on this forum that swimming pool noodles can be used as flotation in the hull. Are there other possibilities ie. empty plastic bottles, inflated inner tubes, other? Appreciate any help - thanks.
