Dave Would suggest you replace the sides and the handle with new. The parts are cheap and as mentioned available at The Binnacle and other places. I have 2 doubles and a single of those Spinlock/Lewmar clutches on either side. The side proke in a similar place due to UV degradation earlier this summer and I have the new sides and handle installed in less than 24 hours. All parts but the metal pieces are available for these clutches as well as a spare parts kit that includes almost every part

Spinlock, Rick, Andrew, thanks. As you probably saw, a donor match has been located through the list (donation to Stu forthcoming - thanks again James). Am pleasantly surprised that the parts were still available, not so pleasantly surprised at the number of period spinlock images I found online that showed the same failure mode.

They work fine. They may be Lewmars, though. Any use to you?

Spinlock, Schaefer? '85 33ii Hi All, Part failure yesterday, a rope clutch broke. Could replace with similar vintage Spinlock or ideally a vintage Schaefer that matches the others. See photos below. Thanks for looking! Dave http://cncwindstar.blogspot.ca/2016/08/bang-broken-spinlock-rope-clutch.html
