I have the CDI Flexible Furler (#4 or #6 ?? - not sure but I don't think it makes a difference)

I dropped one of the two "anchor pins" that hold the tack and halyard, and of course it fell into the bay.

Anyone know what size they are and/or where I can get a replacement? I can't get to my boat this week, and would like to show up with replacement in hand if possible.

Thanks,
Phil

Been there. Done that.

They're 1.5"x0.5" The trick is finding one with a sufficiently sized hole to allow for the shackle to hold the tack pennant and/or halyard. I have had both the tack and halyard secured to the same pin without a problem for 2 years now.

It should be a #4. You can get spare parts from CDI.

Actually, Randy, that is just a parts list. I went to my local CDI guy and he doesn't carry spare parts but can order them from CDI. I couldn't find a place on the website for retail purchases. It lists a Halyard Shackle and Shackle pin but no sizes or sources for purchase.

I lost mine and had to order a replacement. You have to call CDI. Their number is 607 749 4599. Tell them you need it by the weekend. Cost was $11 not including shipping.

I think it was $18.something all together: $13 for the part and $5.something for shipping.
