Sailing hardware
I have seen two new Wichard hardware
products written up in sailing magazines that look like things I would buy, but
I have not found anyone that carries them. I went to the Wichard web site and
it was useless to find a dealer from the site.
The two products were the MX solid halyard shackle
and the Wichard Boom Brake. I found a link about the boom brake. (http://www.wichard.com/fiche-A|WICHARD|7150-0203030000000000-ME.html)
I like the boom brake and the way it can help in a jib of
the boom. I just wish I could find a dealer that has them or could order one
for me. 8-(
The same thing with the Ronstan “Shock” Block. I went
to the Ronstan Web site but could not get a part number or find the product. I
contacted a dealer that has Ronstan products and they were nice about it but
they said with no part number they could not help. I even sent them a copy of
the write up with pictures, but I heard nothing back from them.
It is nice to see what is new on the market, but it would
also be nice if it was available.
