[C38] Bob Stay

[Steve Smolinske]

Joe, 

 

Have you thought about removing your current bow roller and having what you want added to it?  I drew up some plans to add a 13" extension in order to get the tack for the asym out past the bow pulpit, but decided to wait and see if some of the other tweaks I did will solve the issue first.   You might be able to add 13" of ¼ stainless reinforced on both sides and then tied to the hull with a wire tie rod.   Ill try to send a scan of my drawing in the next few days, (Going in for elbow surgery tomorrow and not sure if ill be to work on Friday or not) but will forward as soon as I can.  The Karver can mount to your bow sprit too cant it?

Hi,
    I am going to put a bob stay on Macavity to handle my Kaver top down chute furler. Does anyone know where I can get a bracket built for the bow  of the boat? I want it to be v shaped stainless following the shape of the hull with an eye to swage the bob stay to. I would also want backing plates for the inside of the hull. It needs to be strong. The bob stay itself will be 11 mm spectra with a cover rated at 19,000 pounds.  SAnta Barbara is a good place for olives but not stainless. Joe
