I need an Enterprise centreboard...

[Bongo]

...due to my carelessness, a long shot, but anyone got one mouldering somewhere.?
Bongo.

2 possible options - you can try my Marinaskip (link in tag line) or if a Facebook member try this page https://www.facebook.com/groups/dinghies/.

Good luck, no doubt there are some out there, it's just finding one. Or simply use the old one as a template & make a new one out of marine ply, it will be stronger if you glue two thinner bits of ply together with the outer grain running lengthways on both.

Hi I have an old Albacore centreplate and a 5o5 centreplate if you can cut one of those down to fit.

Thanks Searush, making one was my original thought, but friend (whose boat it is) left the broken one in Norfolk..good idea to laminate 2x9mm or whatever though.

Will try the links.

Thanks, but I'm a bit stuffed without the old plate to measure.

Surely there's still an active Enterprise class association, in their heyday they sold thousands of 'em; would be worth any modest joining fee for the c/b dimensions and no doubt other useful info.

You bet! Still very active in the UK and abroad. Over 23,000 made. Mine were sail number 6022 from 1962 and 17911 from the late 1970s
