In reply to: andrew bradley 's message, "rotten bowsprit" on - Thursday - 10/14/10 - 12:04am

Took my M40 bow sprit off and found some rot in it,my bother in law and I are going to take it apart and try to use it as a template to make a new one. I'm thinking douglas fir for wood. It looks like the sprit is made with several pieces of wood put together square for the body and then rounds out at the end. Its nothing like an M31 sprit. It really does not look to complicated to reproduce. I'm bringing the boat home from NC to Florida after the holidays so that I can work on it more myself. I'm sick and tired of paying out my but* for carpenters to do work up there. Let me know how you make out with yours ... Not to much on here about the M40's
