I have been trying for weeks to purchase the trapeze adjustors that are being used on the new Infusion (see attached photos) and nobody understands what I am looking for when I describe it over the phone.

These are very similar to what I had on my tornado but not in carbon.

If you can get me 4 of these parts plus the trap rings, please get in touch with me via this sites PM.

Thanks,

Paul

That's not a stock Nacra part. Those are Marstrom carbon sheaves. Try Carla Schieffer at Coconut Grove Sails and Canvas - (305) 668-5001

I believe she is the US Marstrom importer.

I have been told that NACRA are making them for the Infusion because the Carbon Marstom ones are not F18 legal.

That is one piece of the adjustable trapeze system which is a part of the "Race Package". Call Ron Lane at Fastlane sailing at 619-222-0788. #9136 is the part number of the whole adjustable trapeze system.

Adjusts trap height while sailing. Some folks use them on the crew's traps to lengthen from the upwind setting to allow the crew to trap at the back of the bus with the 'chute up.

The double in-line sheaves allow easier adjustment through mechanical advantage - apparently some of you giants are heavy.

West Coast is okay, but I have to order decent coffee from Nawlins. And they hardly fry anything out here. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

Come a little further west. You can get fried SPAM.

Yeah, wassup with that? I keep hearing about it and then it was on "How it's Made" the other night about how there's so much spam eaten in Hawaii. Is it a FAD? <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

It's a staple of the local's diet. The first year we were here we wanted to donate $200 worth of baby food to a food drive. The organizers said they much preferred SPAM. Even McDonald's and Burger King both serve it.

If there's a hurricane coming, the stores get depleted of toilet paper, rice and SPAM. Go figure.

JW, just come up here and I can hook you up with some good coffee. You just haven't made it to Santa Cruz yet. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

That might be a deal breaker for us being out there to help Jake at the AC next year... <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

To get a piece of that action I'd bring my own frying gear!

any reason why this wouldn't work? Has to be cheaper too.
