I’m piecing my 1988 192 rig together and need to work on 3 things. The boat has a full Z Spar setup (mast and boom) and I need some parts. Anyone know where to find part diagrams or a part number list? D&R has all the Dwyer parts listed but they’re not compatible with the Z Spar setup. Rig Rite has a ton of Z Spar part numbers but I don’t know what I actually need.
#1: Spreader - Looks like someone dropped the mast because the starboard spreader is bent a the spreader bracket. I worked some of the bend out but ultimately I’d like to replace it.
#2: Outboard boom end sheaves - The end of the Z Spar boom has a spot for 3 sheaves so you can run the reefing system / outhaul internally in the boom. Problem is that those sheaves and pin are missing.
#3: Mast Hinge - The previous owner made their own hinge out of super heavy duty stainless steel. Only problem is that the tolerances are so tight I ended up bending it raising the mast the first time. So I’m either going to get a local welder to modify the home made hinge or go back to the original Z Spar hinge.
I’m sort of considering a building a new setup using all Dwyer parts next year depending on how this goes.
