Centerboard for MacGregor 26X (2000 Year built)

[Mystic on Otter]

I need to replace the centerboard on my MacGregor 26X built in 2000.

Other than factory replacement from BWY, any other ideas , drawings, or used / abandoned boats/centerboards available?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Are your looking for cheaper or better? Ruddercraft has a performance CB for $600

Thanks Justin. Looking for less expensive. OEM is 550 USD plus crating plus shipping ........

I was hoping there might be a used one or a broken boat out there somewhere

I'm sure they are out there. have you tried Ebay?

Haven't yet. I'll post a wanted post there today. Thanks

What happened?

Dove under the boat and discovered a fairly large chunk out of the leading edge and it doesn't feel stable in the CB box or underway. Preparing for a winter works pjt unless I lose it underway.

It's not a tight fit to begin with. cut a piece of wood to fill the chunk, trim shape and glass over.
