where to get a replacement whisker pole pin

xluke · #1 (**permalink**) 10-01-2011

Hello,
The pin on my whisker pole pin head fell into the lake and I haven't been able to source a replacement. Any suggestions? It is a cylindrical pin that has a larger diameter on one end and is spring loaded, held in place with a circular cotter ring.

Thanks!

You might also check with your local sail loft. They are good sources for information and alot of them have a supply of "recycled" parts for rigging.
