We returned to Dunedin city marina with a broken bobstay. The lower fitting was called out on the pre-purchase survey in 2007. There was some crevice corrosion beginning so it was removed and repaired. I had been noticing some rust in the last several months and planned to inspect it again when we haul out in the spring. Well, the sea gods had other plans and the fitting failed when the anchor chain pulled taut across the bobstay. Fortunately there was no load on the rig at the time so no other damage. I checked around and found Keller Engineering in Dunedin. I took the failed fitting over to Jud Angelillis. He duplicated the piece in short order at a very reasonable price. I installed the new fitting and re-attached the bobstay. So we are ready to go again.
