Hi Derek, if one of those will also fit on a threaded life line I'm interested. I lost a turnbuckle to the front of a life line and have had a tough time finding one local.
Thanks, Steve

Mines a '77 C-25 and I'm almost certain that the stays and the lifeline are the same turn buckles.
I can check on Friday when I get home from some out of town training that I'm doing.

If I knew for sure they'd screw onto my shrouds, I'd send you a check today for these. Anyone got any idea if these would fit on a C-250?

For the record the shrouds on the Capri 25 are the same size as the Cat 25 as well. I learned that through trial and error too.

Steve, I'd much sooner sell all 3 rather than just one. Sorry.

I wasn't trying to buy just one of them, I was fine with having a couple of spares. ("one" was going to be used for a lifeline).

On my boat they are different. I just installed new lifelines. If you check yours and find them to be the same I will be glad to sell you one of them.

C25pylot, just go with amsteel lifelines for $60. You'll never turn back.

Derek I just got back my boat and it turns out my turn buckles are all interchangeable. The life lines and stays are the same size. So like I I said in the first two posts I'm interested in them. How and where would you like the $35 payment? I can do PayPal later tonight or put a postal money order in the mail tomorrow.
Thanks,
Steve

Steve, If you buy this set, are you interested in selling the T blocks that go from the turnbuckle and connect to the deck? If so, let me know how much. Ill take all three.

Derek, If Steve decides not to purchase them, I will. I can pay immediately with PayPal. Please advise.

DFW turns out I'm going to have a use for all three of them, sorry.
I did see them on sale here: http://www.defender.com/product2.jsp?path=-1|619045|1970797&id=666759
and these guys have great prices (Ive made about 3 purchases from them) but they screwed me on a return once by never refunding my $18. (won't answer my calls or emails either) So beware if you are not sure on the item.

Good luck, Steve
