In reply to: Neil Smith 's message, "Boom End Fitting T500" on 23/05/05 23:03:03

The fitting on the end of the boom where the mainsheet upper block attaches is cast aluminium if I recall correctly. I'm sure it can be rotated 180 degrees and the topping lift eye used for the mainsheet. I changed my boom and went for slab reefing but i'm sure there were 3 eye fixing points on the top and bottom of the old fitting, I think this has been an issue for other owners and some have had them weld repaired. Just another thought, you mention various other items like windows, chain plates etc. make sure you don't over pay for this boat, all things are repairable/replaceable but watch the cost.
