Aussie Jib Pigtail

Hi all,

In my excitement to get on the water I left my Aussie pigtail and bow shackle on the tramp and drove off and of course lost the works between home and the lake.

I don't want to wait for an order to get here to Canada so I thought I would get one crimped at our local chandlery. Thing is I don't know the dimensions for this pennant and was wondering if anyone out there knew what the dimensions should be. I think the shorter pigtail should be 6" but don't know for sure. I have no clue what the longer one is.

The boat is an '85 and not modified to my knowledge other than a comp tip.

The pigtail I lost is like this one Murrays p/n 02-3300 http://www.murrays.com/mm5/graphics/00000001/02-3300-00.jpg

Thanks so much for your help.

Cheers,

skydog

This looks like a Prindle forestay top piece, but Prindles do not have a CompTip- only Hobies.
We need you to clarify what catamaran you have before we can help you.
