Hi all,
I'm a new 23.5 owner and new to sailing in general. While stepping the mast for the first time and fighting to attach the forestay, we managed to drop the pin that goes in the base of the furler in the water. (Our ramp has power lines over it and requires it done in the slip)
I had another pin that fit, but the more I think about it, the more concerned I become that it is inadequate and may sheer. Does anyone have a suggestion as to what would be the best quality replacement? I've attached an image in the event that I'm describing this poorly.
Thanks in advance,
Jake
