Help!
I tried the search feature, since I recall some prior discussion about goosenecks, but alas I found recent posts.
My problem is that I need a new gooseneck. We unstepped the mast on my Ariel #330 today to do accident-related mast and deck repairs. Some good and some bad news, but mostly good, other than having to saw off the tabernacle bolt, The SS bolt was in good shape, but was corroded to it's aluminum sleeve.
The real bad news is that the gooseneck on my boom is shot. Does anyone have a source for gooseneck parts? Is there a supplier or has anyone had one made recently, and what marine yard, foundry, fabricator made one for you?
If not, has anyone adapted one from another type of boat?
