Buying a Jib

Post by dee »

I have been searching on a post that I read a while ago on where to buy acessories for a Mac. I am looking into buying a jib for my :macm: and would like to know which place I can find a good deal on it instead of going to the dealer. The dealer is seeling it for about $285.00 so I think there are cheaper places out there.

Much appreciated
Dee

Dee,

I just received a accessory pricing update form Bill at Boats4sail, he is a member on this site and he has his Jib for Roller Furler or with Hanks for $190 and $60 for Jib blocks and sheets! That seems like a great price. He may see this post and send you the info or you can send him an email at b4sail@att.net and let him know how you found him.

I purchaced a topping lift set up from him and he is a good, fair guy to work with and I always like supporting fellow Mac sailors here on this site.

Good luck.

Bill,

I am also looking at the Jib equipment. Can you give me a total price for both.

Thanks

Bill,

That sounds good. I just saw your site and has a phone number there. Should I call you and set an order for the jib and the jib's equipment?
