Does anyone know if these are available anymore? They are handed. on one side the fitting has been smashed by some long forgotten "incident". The same has happened on one side at the bow.

I have been searching and have almost given up. other people must have had this problem. did you get fittings made to fit? Does that cost a fortune??

The boat is a UFO 31
Sunrunner (UFO 34) has obviously had the same problem at some point in the past because somebody has replaced them with normal fairleads thus :

I think and exact match would be a bespoke proposition but Seascrew have some terminal fairleads at https://www.seascrew.com/browse.cfm?YACHT-TOE-RAIL---FITTING&l=0000000997 which look nice at a suitably "nice" price.

If you know an engineer then I expect it would be easy enough to get some machined up out of asymetrical angle, but as you say, that's arm and a leg territory...

You DOO have something useful... and you favour PBO!!
If you mean the SL Yachting ones notice that they don't have a base so can only be used in the middle of a length of toe rail, not at the end as you require.

Easiest is the Seascrew ones or else as I said, get somebody to machine them up out of alloy or stainless asymetrical angle.
