Used hardware sources

[brak]

Other than Bacons in Annapolis, are there other good used hardware sources - especially accessible online?

Right now I am looking for a boarding ladder (preferably to match hole pattern from the old one, with round 3 hole bases, flip - up kind - btw if anyone has one, I'll buy it ).

Try The Scurvy Dog Boatworks & Marine in Pensacola,FL not online but the phone number is 850-434-1770. They are open Wednesday through Saturday I think.

Sailormn ( I belive ) also in Fl they do have a web site.

Here is the web site I found it.

Might also check the Good Old Boat magazine site, which has a good list of consignment shops and businesses.

Would help if you said what kind of boat it was, since the ladder might have been a stock item on that boat design.

My boat Hallberg-Rassy 35, Rasmus (1972). I doubt there is much stock available unless one of them is going into salvage (which would be a shame). Mine is probably the oldest in the country (hull number 124 out of 700 or so made )

I am not stuck on anything stock - but I'd like a more traditional ladder, the kind that does not fold but simply flips up whole. I see similar ladders on most boats of 70s-early 80s vintage. They have round bases with 3 fastener holes - and the old pattern on the boat is the same.

I will try all suggested links, thanks!

Brak-

Can you post photos of the mounting holes???

[brak]

Good idea. Will take photos this weekend and post them then.

You might want to put something in the photo to give a size reference.

Newport Nautical Supply and Wickford Consignment are two good ones in the Northeast. They do have web sites also.

Love Bacons. Got me a tuff luff track for $15 instead of $210.
