I have a 33-II with a centreboard whose pendant broke a couple of years ago. I had Rob From South Shore yachts make and install the new one. They had an eye fitting roll swagged on the lower end, which the fed down and attached with a pin to the board, then hand swagged 2 fittings to make the eye on the deck end.
When hauled the board swung just far enough forward to allow you to reach up and remove and replace the pin. Have a new pin ready! Ours was just about worse thru.

I purchased a 1983 37 with a centerboard last November and I have found out that the centerboard pennant has broken, probably the original cable. Has anyone replaced theirs? If so has anyone gone with a super strength rope of similar size instead of a new cable? Obviously the boat has to be lifted to work on the board and what are people using to fasten to the pin on the board? One last question, is there a trick to getting the new line or cable fed from deck level to the board? Thanks in advance Steve deForest Saint John NB sdefor...@bellaliant.net
