Maybe reach out to the NW Maritime Center in Port Townsend. They may know of someone with a classic boat or doing a restoration that would be interested in a piece of "antique" gear.

Anyone know when Ports and Passes and Capt'n Jack's are typically released for the coming year? I've never paid attention and strangely I haven't been able to find this info online anywhere.
