Looking for used parts for my recently purchased Mutineer. Not interested in purchaseing new, just good serviceable used parts. What I need is a jib furler (bottom) drum and whatever its attached to under the deck. Am a former Rebel sailor and not use to furlers. Also trying to find particular type of boom bale; one thats used on larger one-designs...shaped like four fingers in a X-shape which holds onto boom with two fasteners per finger or eight total. For some reason these are no longer made or aren't available from my parts guy. With the fingers in a X design not all the force from the double fiddle block pulling at just one place, there is minimal force or strain to one point on the boom. This in turn allows for less bending of the boom and or breakage.
