Hurley 22 Mast Footplate

[mjhiggins]

Hi

I am hoping someone can assist, I need to obtain a footplate or drawings or a footplate for a Hurley 22 mast.

Any help appreciated

Best to look on the HOA website where there is a huge amount of information.
Www.hurleyownersassociation.co.uk
If not on the site there is an active owners forum where someone will help

What exactly do you mean by the foot plate? 'Cos my mast sits in a tabernacle and just sort of ends.

Not that I can actually help with either but do you mean the tabernacle, bolted to the coachroof, or the aluminium "plug" in the bottom of the mast?

Edit: too slow!

Update

Hi

thanks for the quick responses!

I have an alacrity 22, which is based on a jaguar 22 and subsequent hurley 22.

The mast on the alacrity 22 is gone/broke etc, so I have obtained a Hurley 22 mast to replace it. I am looking to 'attach' the mast to the boat by means of a footplate or tabernacle/plug.

I will look on the hurley site thanks!

Hi, does the mast have a name on it, you may find the company is still around so a foot could be purchased, I think from memory the Z Spar section was a Z230 section which comes with a hinging foot, even if not a Z Spars you may find there foot would work. Z230 measures 122 x 82. Hope this helps.

You're right about the Jaguar 22 (and Catalina 22) but I don't think the Alacrity has any relationship with the Hurley 22 since it has a lifting keel and a displacement less than 60% that of the Hurley. This is not to say that the mast won't be fine for your purpose.

The tabernacle is a very simple affair and you should be able to knock one up for a few quid if you have someone who can do the welding for you. I've had a look but don't have any close-up pics for you and I doubt the HOA site will have dimensions but if you join the Yahoo group I'm sure someone closer to their boat than I will be able to help.
