What is this?

Apparently I have an obligation to repeat myself for you markwbird because you chose not to read. And yes, this is sarcasm in the friendliest sense.

In line with mystery pieces of boat rigging does anyone know what this is? It was on the boom when we purchased the boat from a PO who was not a sailor.[

I don't know but I need two of them.

Looks kind of like a horseshoe ...

On that boom vang thing ... my initial impression was that you could hang that over your companionway for good luck ...

I'm detecting a note of sarcasm. Apparently, I have an obligation to carefully read and weigh all of the comments and info so that I can provide the best possible response so as not to waste any of DannyS' time. I will do better next time.

Actually, we all have that responsibility...

Ron, Bacons visit: Next time you are there, look for a small size whisker pole for me! (I haven`t been able to get there due to work schedule), . I have never been there so i was wondering if it was likely they would have one.

They sold a 12-to-22 for me. Whoever bought it, returned it beacuse it was not what they needed. Bacons sold it and shipped it to Florida. /// It is raining today,(Monday) so I'll go for a look-see. Did you look at baconsails.com to see if they list the poles? I know there are dozens in the back room. What size? Buttonlock? Twist lock? Adjustable, right?

Yes I'll look for the OP's brackets.
