Missing Gooseneck Piece On C22
Posted: Tue Mar 31, 2009 4:47 pm
I would like to ask a favor. I am missing a small part that goes in the gooseneck assembly. The boom has a clevis, and the mast also has a clevis, and apparently there is a small metal block that goes in between. I am missing the small metal block part.
I just got the mast up and found that the part was missing. Is there a place to buy one of these? If not I will try to make one somehow. If anyone has a good idea of where to buy one i would appreciate it.
PS: The mast raising bridles did the trick. The mast went up smooth and controlled. I used the jib halyard to attach to the top of the gin pole and made up 1/8 inch cables for the other parts. Instead of a winch I used a pair of double blocks and line to pull it up from the front. Thanks to Scott for the photos on how to do it.
Thanks,
Carl
