Has anybody got any spare rollers that run along the boom on a EPS gnav. Alternatively does anyone know if there is another boat that uses the same part. I have one with the flange broken off for part of the circumference. They are about 30mm in diameter and could easily be turned on a lathe from nylon rod - any offers?

I think I might have a couple of those somewhere - that system was used originally on the Vortex but found to not be up to the job and replaced. PM me with your details and in the meanwhile I'll scour the garage!

I'm in need of one of these - gnav roller for Laser EPS. Any Vortex sailors got one lying around?

Cheers Mike

Well, if you will carry on sailing in a squall like that what do you expect?
