Hi all - Josh at Anchors & Oars Salvage is scrapping another J/30 in Maryland. Does anyone need a mast, boom, pulpit, fuel tank, or other components? I need to let him know soon so we can pull the mast instead of chainsawing it.

- Michael Ruzzi

Note - This is separate from the mast we recently pulled out of Deckworks in Annapolis

Hi Michael,
I'm looking for an original stainless steel tiller extension and original covers for the Aquameter bulkhead compasses. And if there are compasses in good condition, I'd be interested in them as well.

Yeah, real old school.
Thanks,
Mark Rotsky

Hi Mark - I have the stainless steel tiller extension but not the compasses or compass covers, sorry. If I remember correctly the compass on Deckworks had cracked and leaked out all of the compass fluid, so it wasn't salvageable anyway.

Michael,
That tiller extension would be great.

I have two real nice old compasses that my son found on ebay a few years ago and one cover for them. I gave him the
cover last year to duplicate with his 3D printer but so far no results, so I'm reverting to try to find one. I'll just have to keep looking. There has to be some out there somewhere. Thanks for checking.
Mark
