Gooseneck

albin43 · 05-12-2010, 11:20 AM

im in need of a gooseneck for my trawler. the boom and riggings were missing when I bought the boat. only the mast was onboard. I found a nice wood boom off a old sailboat that will fit perfectally. I can make the gooseneck at my shop but were busy right now so Id rather just buy one. I searched the internet for awhile today with no luck. the mast is about 7 inch dia and the boom is about 3.5 or 4 od. any help would be great

You should be able to buy something workable at almost any sailboat hardware supplier since this is pretty common. You won't likely find it at Worst Marine or Defender. Chuck

Here are a couple of sailboat riggers:

Another one to try is http://garhauermarine.com/* , they make a lot of custom stuff and are easy to work with.
