Post by freitknecht »

Looking for turnbuckles and toggle nuts to replace original bronze on 1980 Cape Dory 27. Anyone have any for sale or suggestions where to find some. Thanks.

Can you post a picture of what you are trying to replicate? I have a collection of smaller bronze turnbuckles. How many do you need?

I have seven. See attached photo. These are 3/8" turnbuckles. Measure the diameter of the rigging screw or the clevis pin.

Send me a PM if interested.
