Hi Mark,
My sympathy, I'm a hurricane Frances and Jeanne survivor. No problem with Frances but Jeanne blew the boat over in the boatyard where she had been hauled. Three punctures through the hull below the waterline, the mast tweaked, and the bow pulpit middle rail (fabricated by Riley Marine Products in 1985) bent.
A good source for tillers for any boat is H&L Marine Woodwork in Rancho Dominguez, CA (323)636-1718. Their laminated tiller is far superior to the TP original equipment one.
I would also recommend Riley Marine Products for any kind of stainless tubing work: pulpit, pushpit, stanchions, grab rails, etc. They are in Long Beach, CA (562)435-5233, website rileymarine.com
As another has mentioned, Rig Rite is the source for mast pieces. I'm going to need new spreaders and spreader bases also.
I've had the boat 20 years and the only damage she has ever had has been on dry land. I lost the mast to an overhead sign in San Carlos, Mexico in 1999 and now boatyard induced damage in Stuart, FL in 2004. There is a lesson in there somewhere, I just not sure what it is.
