HELP ME!

You probably already know this but you can order the tube from Rig-Rite and transfer all the hardware.

Rig Rite ....

funny story ... I ordered some bits and pieces in noc/dec 2004 ( YES 04 )..never heard nuttin from them. I emailed them the order, and than printed the order forma and faxed it as well...

nada , didnt hear from them at all.
Called them in April 05 talked to a telephone service, which was supposed to be located IN THEIR OFFICE ... ????? did the same thing again, faxed the order and emailed. ....

nothing whatsoever ...

Funny thing happened yesterday. truly I am NOT makin this up... got a call from a nice lady from rig rite and asked me if I still needed the order I placed nov 04 ....

wonder if they call me in 3 months and asking me about the second order ????

I'm hoping to find a used boom-you know, kinda cheap?

I hear you.

And Thor, I almost did not make the suggestion due to the problems they have been having.

Steve...I bet those J30s that are in pieces have pieces... and I'm just as certain they are not monitoring the website any longer. Maybe contact them directly. I got sails from the 2 in Florida... they were auctioned on ebay recently. Cigar was up to about 200.00 uh, that was the whole boat. I gave up on rigrite for the same story as Thor... finally remade the rudder metal.

I broke my boom at Key West Race week. I will purchase a new boom tube from RigRite and will advise you of my experience.
As for pricing, a new boom tube (clear anodized) is $389.00. That assumes that you would transfer over your old hardware.

I just did this a year or two ago. Bought the bare tube from RigRite, drilled the holes, and even tapered the end of the boom like my original had. Didn't take much time at all, and then painted to match the mast. Been working great!
