Howdy y'all! I'm new to this forum. I've been out of sailing for a while and looking to get back into the game. My son and i picked up an old venture 2-24 for a song and we're gonna fix at it till it sails again. This old gal is missing some hardware and I was just wondering if any of y'all might know of anyone scrapping out a boat or have extra stuff they're no longer using and if so y'all could steer them my way. This thread could really be for anybody looking for stuff for their baby, or for folks wanting to be shed of stuff.....
Kind of a pop top swap shop!
Much obliged!

What specifically are you looking for?

The form function and layout of many sail boats are very similar
so you are not bound by any means to parts from a Venture.

Welcome to the forum and your new old money pit....

Thanks for the welcome, Topcat. My main obstacle (other than a keel overhaul) is the forward support bar for the pop top is missing. The swing up bars are there as is the cabin brackets that hold the forward bars in place. I would also like to find a stern rail (pulpit?). I'm fortunate there is a marine salvage yard nearby that I can pickup a few stanchions and other miscellaneous missing hardware. Also needing a mast heel and new spreaders....
