Missing Pin

[Nigel Noble]

Would anyone know where I can get the pin that holds the docking line in the bow fairlead on a 25?

I appreciate any suggestions.

You'll have to call them, the part isn't in the catalog, but if your chock is here (and I expect it will be) they made it.

Thank you Bill. Now I know what a chock is.

Lost the chock rod for my CD Typhoon Weekender and called Spartan today. I guess they answer email once a month.

Paul answered and phone and said "You're in luck, I just made 12 of them!" So for $25 I got a new one on the way.

Paul warned me to put the locking pin in the rod AFTER you slide the straight tip of the rod through the chock. Seems obvious to me, be he said I wouldn't believe how many people call to complain that the pin is preventing the rod from extending all the way forward.

I spoke to them yesterday and they said they were making new ones and they would be at least 6 weeks. I suppose the pin is specific to the boat size??

I'm not sure. I imagine the CD 25 may at least have longer pins. Try calling again and ask for Paul.

I don't mean to be overly facetious when I ask if $25.00 covers the cost of a new chock and locking pin, or is this the cost of 4 or five inches of 5/16" SS rod with a bend on one end and a hole for a safety clip in the other end.

Just being curious,

Nope, $25 is the cost of ONE rod and two locking pins. You know the deal -- if it's for a boat multiply the price times four!
