I need help to get a mast foot euro pin type in Port Stephens or Hawks Nest asap. I was told there are no shops here, but there might be something in Hawks Nest. Has anyone any contacts?
I came up here sailing, so I have no car, and will go back in a few days, so shops cannot send it in time, but was hoping to have a few runs....

PS: I am amazed that there is not a windsurfer in sight.

Thanks

Do you need extension or universal? If universal, and you can somehow drive/taxi to Newcastle , I have a spare. No shops up there unfortunately. Forecast isn't great so might not be worth the time/cost/effort for you.

what size mast and extension do you use (SDM or RDM) ?
I have a couple of spare mast feet and extensions but all are XT connection (2 buttons on the side) and I live in the Bay
Got an alloy extension (42 cm or so) to suit a SDM and an alloy extension to suit a skinny mast along with mast foot to suit.
Happy to lend them to you so you can get out on the water.
Send me a PM if you're keen

Cheers

Kev

thanks for the replies and the offers, I'll go to Hawks Nest today, might get lucky. I prefer not to borrow as I am not sure where I will stay each night, might be difficult to return the part. Good luck to you Johnny, may 2014 exceed your expectations

if its the SDM extension that you need you can take it as a 'long term loaner'
I don't have any Standard Diameter Masts so will not miss the extension (48cm)
The mast foot is one of three I have so no rush on the return of that either.
Never heard of any gear supplied out of Hawks Nest but let me know if you have any luck

What time are you heading out on Friday.
Looks like we may get a little nor Easter mid arvo onwards.

How good is Fame Cove !!!!
Might have to take my boat back up there as its been ages.
Plenty of moorings available or are you at anchor ?
