Been sorting out the workshop this afternoon boxing up the various restoration parts in categories as it was looking a tad messy as as the parts have been coming off I just piled it up near the entrance!!

1.New parts to fit
2.Old small parts to clean & refurb
3.Old small parts that have been processed
3.Old large parts to clean & refurb
4.Old large parts that have been processed.

All tidy and sorted so I can get on with it in the warmth of the workshop rather than the boatyard.

One thing that I've been looking on the net for though is the black triangle end stops on the track the spinnaker pole slides up & down on the front of the mast. It's a kemp item probably mid 70's. It stops the pole ring sliding off the track either side and finishes it off cosmetically. Is their a good place to buy old mast parts online or am i going to have to make them myself? They broke apart as the plastic ha gone brittle.

This is the part I'm trying to find.

As you probably know, Selden took over the Kemp stuff; but good luck getting any helpful assistance, from my experience ( but TBF that was a while ago, so worth a try ).

Otherwise, maybe Seedhouses outfit relatively near you, or The Chandlery Barge at Bursledon on the Hamble ?
 
We caravan on the end of the deben quite regularly so will try Andy Seedhouse next time we are their. Forgot about his spares shack to be honest. I haven't been able to get anywhere with selden on any old mast parts unfortunately. They just don't have them anymore. If I don't have any luck will buy some black plastic and fabricate my own.
