Not sure if this is a common part on the Top Hat mark 3 as lots of bits on Sea Monkey seem to be fairly different. My jib comes round the shrouds and through a pulley which clips into a car on the Toe Rail. Obviously this does not allow me to bring the sheet in too tight, as it is outside the shrouds, but it works OK. I reckon it would be a good system for the spinnaker sheet, so I am thinking of fitting a track on the deck (which I have seen on other TopHats) and then use the toe rail system for the spinnaker.
This is where i come to a problem, I have only one car and the other one is missing. At present there is a d-shackle which is used, but makes adjustment a pain in the proverbial. I have asked around and checked out the second hand boat bits stores and no-one seems to have one.
Does anyone have one in their garage that they would like to sell to me? Or does anyone know where I can get one?
I have attached a photo for easy identification of the part - note the unusual side-plunger!!
