The Owner! What kind of clown doesn't take their jib down for winter storage??
We always get a couple blasts of 50 - 60 Kts during the winter - Bill Coleman Erie PA From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Tom Alessi via CnC-List Sent: Wednesday, January 08, 2020 4:46 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Cc: Tom Alessi Subject: Stus-List Spreader Bracket Went to check up on my boat the other day and found that my lower port spreader bracket had been pulled off the mast, but still attached to spreader. Seems a nearby sailboat owner had not removed the jib and it came unfurled during a storm and caught hold of the spreader boot. I can only imagine it violently shaking my spreader and rig. With the bracket partially off I can see a hole in the mast. - Is that some kind of access opening behind the bracket? Or is it worse than that? I'm buried in the yard and the mast won't be down till spring. -If the bracket or spreader is destroyed, does anyone know of a source for replacements? - Boat owner or Boatyard responsible? Appreciate any info. Tom Alessi Andiamo C&C 36 646-283-1580
