Help needed for sailing canoe project!
Guys and Gals:
I'm working with the Frankensailer canoe and right now just working on a DIY gooseneck for my existing 1.5" diameter aluminum tubing from an old hang glider. I have the rudder pretty much ready, and the mast base is glued down. The mast thwart is mocked up in plywood and a stub mast is installed in the thwart and base. The boom is also the same diameter in the same material. But any commercial parts i can find are made for larger tubing like the Laser gooseneck. I can fabricate something, but any ideas would be helpful.
