I just bought a Hobie 14 Turbo and whilst towing it 200 miles home, the cable holding the jib cleats came loose at one end and pulled out of one cleat, which then fell off.

Does anyone have a spare that they could sell and post to the UK?

Someone on ebay is braking a 16 in the UK but I'm not sure whether it's the same cleat as they are not on the tramp?

I have a jib block for a 14 turbo. Find out how much approx. to ship from Oklahoma, USA and if you're willing I could sell to you.

Thanks hobieokc. Let me know the postage cost via regular airmail (shouldnt be that much). My 14 is made in france and uses Sailspeed blocks...yours would be a US one I guess.

I have been offered these non oem blocks from someone that's breaking an old 14...he says they attach to the wire via beckets with those green wahers either side of the tramp...looks weird & I think I'm better off with the original pulley type? http://h.imagehost.org/view/0782/DSC00185
