Pintle mounted mast crutch
sealyham01@...
Hi everybody, I am looking for the (hopefully) factory made, pintle-mounted mast crutch, if anyone would sell one to me. Thanks!

Nice response Michele! Barton Marine doesn't have much more information on their site[1] (and they do not sell direct, anyway.) Nice to see they have furlers of sizes suitable for WWP's, too.

It's available on Ebay, which is how I got mine. On Fri, Feb 3, 2023 at 4:44 PM Michele Mikkelborg via groups.io <islandmichele43=gmail.com@groups.io> wrote:

Thanks! That’s a handy little one! Did you know there was one that came with the American Potter (maybe the English too I don’t know). I used to have one and long story short I don’t anymore. That was the one I was thinking of, but this one is dandy!

Having searched for one of these mast supports on line, I see that Steveston Marine in BC (Canada) have these on sale for cdn$74.24 plus taxes, shipping (or free local pick up). I’ve just ordered one…bargain 😊

Could you post a link to the product? I can't find it on their site. Thank you!

Hi Michele, |

The 'crossbar' feature on the aft side of the crutch can carry a light assembly connected to the trailer lights. There is a potential benefit, in that such lights should never be anywhere near being submerged in salt (or fresh!) water.

Hi Amgine, I agree. It a design for the UK market where drivers carry a trailer light and number/license plate set up on a wide wooden board (easily removed for storage), rather than having the plate affixed to the bottom of a boat trailer as is the norm this side of the pond. |
