| Post subject: | Replacement Stays for i-Sail Kit |
I recently bought a sail kit for me new i12s, but I couldn't find the stays or clips. The place I bought it has been helpful in trying to get a replacement, but I'm thinking I could replace them with normal lines and clips. I know some people have created custom top-of-mast furlers for the inflatable sail kits. Can anyone share some parts or specs for the stay lines and the hooks so I can replace quickly? Thanks! |

Did you get the correct kit? Should have a 4 piece mast and a webbing loop to tie the stays to. Odd they would be missing. 24.5 feet cut into 3 lines. 3 HOOK, 1/4 SHK CRD, NYLON, BLK |

Thanks @mmilleer. Yes, it's the right kit.. It's the correct instructions and it's white with yellow and it has the mount hook on the mast. I either dropped it in the parking lot or if fell out of the car at lunch. Can you help expand some of those parts: 1/4 inch black nylon shock cord? What do the hooks look like? Is there an explicit part I can order? Is this something I can pickup at west marine or defender.com in short order? Best. |

That is a hook (for 1/4" shock cord). This is our #2102 or Seadog has them as https://www.defender.com/product.jsp?id=208848 |

I tried it using shock cord (bungie) and it just didn't feel right. I feel like stays should not be that stretchy. So I ended up using normal cord. Can anyone double confirm whats in your kit? |

Yes, a low stretch line is required. Not shock cord. The only reference to shock cord is the type of hook we use. |
