I rang Hartley's and before I had finished the word 'shrouds' - there was an IMMEDIATE response - Bring it in for repair FOC & ASAP >>
However, I didn't fancy two 300 miles round trips , and, as I had all I needed to effect the repair, I asked for the "bits" >>> and a day later, they arrived >> 8100ddy rain delayed the work a little , but by Friday she was ready to sail again >>
Top marks all round . egh ? >>>
PLEASE READ THIS BIT
Check your shroud deck fittings
NOW
HR did suggest that others who only have the SMALL = Seasure 40mm x 12mm // 1 5/8 inch x 1/2 inch = plates under the gunnels -
RING them and ask for an "upgrade kit" >> IMMEDIATELY <<
two off - large plates to replace small ones
six off - 5mm self-lock nuts to replace ALL the white nylon ones on top of deck.
four off - self-tapping screws for the large plates
Many thanks to all who made the weekend a great one to remember
