My C250 has brass cylindrical turnbuckles approximatley 5" long and 5/8" diameter. They are covered by a stainless tube with black plastic caps on each end. The caps have become weathered, cracked and broken. Anyone know the manufacturer? Or a source for replacement caps?

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Contact your local Catalina dealer. They should have them in stock. If they don't they can get them from Catalina.

Steve, Bryan, Bill,

Thanks for the suggestions. I just got off the phone with Catalina Direct. They don't carry the little buggers. Guess I will check with the factory next to see who manufactures them, or with the dealer. Will keep you advised.

Steve,

Haven't had much time lately. I will see my local Catalina dealer next weekend at the Boston Boat Show. I'll let you know what I find out from him.
