Replacement Mainsail Battens ?

[budgester]

So my bad, but while putting the main sail away for the winter one of my mainsail battens went to the bottom of the river...

My google-fu seems to be failing me but I can't find 40mm * 4mm * 2m battens online for delivery anywhere...

Any suggestions. I'm based on the River Crouch in Essex.

Try any of the local sailmakers?

Search for "sail battens" on Ebay. Several options there.

Go & see the well known sail maker (no breaking of forum rules here notice ) on the Springfield Trading estate on the left as you drive down the road. . Ian G will fix you up. Note, closes early on Fridays. Best to ring before you go

The ends are removable so cut a longer one to size and replace ends.
