As previously posted & incorrectly placed...overenthusiastic skipper and unenamoured crew have driven me to dispose of this rarely used down wind sailing rig; detailed as follows:

2 x 170 sq ft high cut foresails (Saturn) with piston hanks for attaching to inner forestay;

2 x 3.4m Alloy yards fitted with piston fitting to clew and heavy duty swivel for hinge;

1 x heavy duty ss hinge fitting.

Suit 32/36 ft yacht.

Luff length c. 33ft with additional ss swaged strops fitted (could be changed if needed to suit longer forestay).

Pics available but unfortunately not running down wind...

Perhaps not something to send through the post? Original cost ridiculous, the more so since so little used. What would it cost now? No silly offers, please.

would you split and if so what price would you be looking for the the 2 high cut foresails? and their dimensions would be helpful too..
many thanks Phil

170 sq ft; luff c.33.3 ft. Foot < 3.4m. Staggered piston hanks suitable for 8mm forestay. SS swaged strop(s) on tack may need to be cut to suit your forestay length. Reluctant to split package but would consider if nobody wants the yards.

.. any chance of posting pictures of the yards (poles) and the hinge arrangement - presumably yards are fixed length ?

Withdrawn from sale. Many thanks for the interest shown.
