I lost my centreboard :( and would like to make a new one myself made either in marineply or in fibreglass. I need a drawing with the dimentions a plan view and cross section together with the location of it's fixing points. I would appriciate some ideas to make proper modifications for a smother manipulation of the board and cable. I had like to go back at sea a.s.a.p. 8)
Thank you for your help,
:macm: Phil3

I assume since you have an M logo on your post that you mean daggerboard instead of centerboard. I don't have an M so can't help.


Here is a short dicussion thread about the same subject.

RBuckingham lost his also and MacGregor replaced it since it was an early
M that didn't have a centerboard safety line.

Hello everybody,

Thank you for your reply, I would like to appologise for misleading you by clicking on the wrong avatar. My boat is in fact a :macx:

- Mac26X late production 1997,
- 2nd hand bought in 2000 from Alberque N.M.

I'll be grateful to profit from your knowledge :idea: and experience to built my new centreboard.
Thank you
Philippe
