...did I hear a rumour that he'd bought up all remaining examples of Merriman bronze turnbuckles?
Having been persuaded to retain Crystal's galvanised stanchions and stainless guard wire, I'm now of the opinion that the bright red cord currently used to lash the wire ends to their deck fittings is probably due for replacement with something more substantial.
I would imagine a nice little bronze turnbuckle would do the job quite satistfactorily, and if I could get hold of Merriman's to match our rigging screws, that would be even superer.
Anybody know of any kicking about? Or a good old boat jumble coming up in the near future?
