Title: 25' South Coast Seacraft Spreader Base Question
Post by: Boatgirl on March 29, 2013, 12:08:16 PM
Hi everybody -
I have a 25' South Coast Seacraft.  The starboard side spreader base came unattached from the mast.  I had a rigger remove it so it could be re-welded onto the mast and then the rigger disappeared from the face of the earth along with my spreader base.

I have someone who will re-weld the base and have been trying to order a base that will match the port side, but have no idea the original specs.  Can anyone recommend the correct starboard side spreader base for a 25' South Coast Seacraft?

Welcome aboard, Boatgirl.  Sorry to hear about your spreader base.

I don't have a suggestion for you on a specific replacement.  I have had to replace a spreader base, but it was bolt/rivet on, not welded.  I got it from Dwyer, and they have a variety of rig parts.  You might want to check there to see if anything looks like it.

Dwyer Aluminum Mast Company (https://www.dwyermast.com/Default.asp)

Or, maybe give them a call to see if they can point you in the right direction.

There are also a host of other rig suppliers that may help, but I'd just pick one and start with an inquiry if I could not find a specific vendor.

If Dwyer can't help, you might try RigRite.

RigRite has a lot of stuff for a lot of boats, but when you call, they will expect you to know exactly what you want.
