Corroded weld on pulley arm in sail loop!
Memo to self: rinse metal parts after sail.
Whitworths want $95 for similar pulley!! Or $215 for similar strong pulley.
Solution to follow.....
Maybe use pulley from old Gaastra sail

Yep.
That would definitely work for me. Now to get one from Surf Sail in WA
Ah yes, been there: not only the welded ones.
Some brands use a nice inox pulley but topside is fastened with a bolt that is not very seawater resistant.
Somewhat hidden within the sail webbing (and within the top axle), it is worth a check for heavy corrosion.
Ran thru a quiver once and had to replace 2/3, totally rotten, sliver holding it together.
Ezzy pulley=one of the very best

I bought one because of the same issue on a old sail. They work great and are easy to install.
yeah Pete, had the same thing happened to me a few years ago, ezzy pulley replacement worked a treat. I keep a spare in my Bucket 'o' things.
