Thanks Dave. I'm wondering about boom and traveller. Both are warped from strenuous use. Maybe the boom could be replaced or straightened with a jack and frame or something. The traveller I was considering replacing. Both seem like fairly easy parts to isolate from the rest of the rigging. Dan Farrell M17 #301 Dave Scobie <scoobscobie@gmail.com> wrote:
The details on John's list on the msogphotosite that Keith linked are close enough to the spar that is on your 17 danf.
The spars at Jerry used are no longer made. One of many boat component manufacturers that are no longer around.
If you need assistance on the specific parts let me know.

HI All,
I have M17 #301. I'm trying to identify the spars used on the boat, and finding it less than trivial. Does anyone on this mailing list have any hints or guesses?
I've been idly considering the standing rigging, thinking about where and how I would add something like spinnaker pole parts ( ring/track & topping lift ), and thought of my warped old boom, and started browsing and guessing, but curious what kind of parts I might be able to find that were made for the spars. I haven't found anything that specifically says what spars were used, and I haven't stumbled across any parts that looked particularly like what I have onboard.
