Laser 2 question

   Hi

I need to replace the small twin block on the bow of a laser 2 used for the spinaker.

All the ones I find can not be mounted flat. Does anyone know who makes/sells them and there part number.

Many thanks in advance. John

	It might be worth trying the Laser Centre and giving them a description of the block, they should carry them in stock.

	I think you want an RWO plain bearing 18mm double block. You take the pin and shackle out of the top and put a screw down through the hole left and also a screw through the center of the hollow rivet that the blocks rotate around. It is a bit gash but I think that is how Laser did it, I do not think they used the blackplastic spacers but they might be a good idea.
	If it doesn't break it's too heavy; if it does it wasn't built right
