Want To Buy: WTB Spinlock XTS or Garhauer Rebuild parts (cam and carrier)

[keelsidedown]

I have a perfectly good Spinlock XTS triple rope clutch block wasting away in my parts bin for the lack replacement cam and cam carrier.

Defender has the part, but I only need one of the three pieces that are offered with the rebuild kit and really don't want to pay $216 for three cams/carriers when I could buy an entire Garhauer triple rope clutch for 70% of the cost Defender is demanding for the rebuild kit(s).

So... I thought I'd check to see if any cruisers out there have any spare parts that would mate up with what I'm lacking (I'm not quite sure of the rope clutch size, but I think it's the 9/16" variant).

Also, it might be worth mentioning that the Garhauer and Spinlock XTS rope clutches appear to have identical/interchangeable mechanisms.

I'll attach pictures for further elucidation.

I don't know where you are located, but I was just in Bacon Sails in Annapolis and they had several Spinlock clutches in various stages of disrepair for cheap. You might be able to salvage parts off them. However, you would need to be physically present since I doubt the staff will paw through the bins containing them.

I found Rigging Only to be better on Spinlock parts.
