My Mcgregor ?

[Jorge Guerra]

Can some one tell me what part is this and what it is called ? What is it used for?

Wow, that's a good one - to my knowledge, I've never seen anything even remotely like that. Where was it and was it connected to anything in the boat? And any chance you could take a couple of other pictures from different angles?

Glad I'm not the only one who looked at that picture and said Wow, Cool, I Have No Clue! and I Can't Wait to See if Sumner Weighs In!!

Looks like it may be a removable mount for a wind rudder.

Other than my normal “It’s two torsos” comment it looks like a tabletop easel for holding pictures.

Your previous owner threw some completely random piece of junk in the sailboat knowing that the next owner would spend a lot of time trying to figure what it is and is it important. Maybe even get a lot of people on a forum to also ponder what the heck it is.

Nice move PO!!!

I like that....! Have to remember that when I sell mine! Put it in the bilge, right near the opening!

I knew Sumner would know!!!

That's like throwing some misc. hardware up into the sail of the boat next to you when lining up at the starting line. Works every time!!
