John,
I'm assuming from your description of "straight and 4"" that you are looking for skene chocks. Have you looked at the available ones at marine supplies or are you trying to match old ones? ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |

I have shopped all over. The trouble is finding the 3/4 in. width. It is not a Skene chock. If you Google Straight Chock you will see a picture. It is to replace the small chocks originally on my starflite's fin top edge near the stern.

at 5", these are too long. Saw a pair of 4" by Perko but they do not show width. I need 3/4". ------------- Waterman |

John,
Yes, West has the 4" but no width listed. You'll need to call them up. I do believe these are the ones on my Atom but I don't have the width. They are close to the 3/4'!!! http://www.westmarine.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/producte/10001/-1/10001/38361/377%20710/0/chocks/Primary%20Search/mode%20matchallpartial/0/0?N=377%20710&Ne=0&Ntt=chocks&Ntk=Primary%20Search&Ntx=mode%20matchallpartial&Nao=0&Ns=0&keyword=chocks&isLTokenURL=true&storeNum=5000&subdeptNum=24&classNum=736 - West chocks  ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |

John,
Just another thought here!! If you don't have any luck with the 3/4" width, you may have to machine the width down and then of coarse have them plated. Start with the brass set then you won't have to have the chrome stripped. Sometimes we have to go this extreme with restorations. The side windshield brackets on my Atom were missing and I ended up fabricating them out of brass. Lots of welding, grinding and polishing!! ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |
