 Topic: Bow strapPosted: January-20-2009 at 12:29am |

hey guys, i am looking for the bow strap and cables that typically go with a new Plyon. I have the high pylon for my 96 SN but need the cables and strap to wrap around the bow and cant find them sold separately after a quick look on the internet, any ideas?
Thanks - Greg |

Greg,
I also did a quick search but did not find anything. You could always purchase the cable and cable ties at a home improvement store and then a ratchet strap that will allow you to connect it to the bow. You can get a guide post pad from the Store section to put on the cable to cover the cable clamps. Home made can be as good a purchased. Here is a picture I found showing the ratchet strap.

GCarbone - Google the phone # for BareFoot International, or BFI. They sell these items.
PS - Critter, what model is that woodie? What a beautiful boat! |

There is a thread running about this. In Ski/ride/foot talk. See high fly mast installation. Someone recommended a company that sells these parts.

It's a Glen-L so i don't think Pete would mind... at least, he shouldn't. There's no 'correct' hardware or anything for it...kit boat.

OMH -I saw that thread just after this one ironically. I checked a couple of sites but don't seem to see the parts I need without ordering the whole package. I have a home-made pylon from the previous owner who used a ratchet strap to the lift ring. Not pumped about the looks of that or how having it tied to the lift ring. I'll get it figured out, its 7 degrees here, I have some time. Thanks for you help guys.

GCarbone - If I were you I would call Barefoot International. He sold me the strap separately last year.
There probably is too much liability risk for him to sell you a cable for a homemade pylon. |
