I wish its like that up here. Thanks, I will remove tonight. Need to drill out 6 stainless screw heads. And I am supposed to go on vacation (Nantucket and Vineyard) in two weeks so time is of essence. Otherwise I may try to fabricate a temporary solution. I don’t torture my boat now days. I have a 4 month hold and an 8 year old onboard. So we take it slow.

They made a replacement out of stainless. Curved plate to mount to the mast with two tangs to hold the stainless pivot pin. The spacing of the tangs was a bit off, so I put some nylon fender washers in the stack as spacers for the end of the boom to ride on. It wasn’t real expensive (though given the differential in costs from NC to RI, it would probably cost you a lot more than it did me), and the fabrication took a week or two.

Mine was a single aluminum piece with two loops. Top one broke off. Boom fitting had an offset set of loops and a single 5/8” stainless pin was holding everything together. Now that the top loop broke off there is additional load on the bottom. Did anyone have to replace theirs and how did they go about it?
