I do apologise for taking over this forum, I hope this is my last post for a while.
Having finally re-launched Blue Moon last week, polished and shiny as new with all her new kit and peculiar chainplates, I took her up to Itchenor for the weekend as I was doing my club duty. The first morning I got a call to say someone had been swept down tide onto her mooring. Unbelievable. Mercifully the pulpit bore the brunt of the collision but it is badly bent. I remember a post about there being pulpits for sale on eBay but can’t find anything.
Does anyone know if there is stock sitting around somewhere? Or perhaps who made the original?
Any help gratefully received. Thank you.
Peter

Hello Peter,
Hopefully t'other Peter has solved your problem. If not, I can recommend a steel fabricator on the IoW who reshaped and rewelded my bent pulpit, also damaged at Itchenor, but mea culpa, and the victim of my assault was very understanding, and quite impressed that I owned up and reported it. More details if required.
Cheers, John

Thanks John yes I am off to Peterborough tomorrow to pick up a replacement. Our man in Boston has just a couple left I gather. Thanks for the offer of an introduction, I am sure it;s not the last piece of stainless I'll need!

Final post on this topic and then I promise to leave the forum well alone. 'Our man in Boston' with the leftover pulpits and pushpits turned out to be none other than Bruce Parker. A treat to spend half an hour in a windy train station car park chatting about Parkers and Seals, and indeed 505s and 14s too. His fondness for and pride in the boats still absolutely shines through. He told me he has various bits and pieces and would welcome enquiries if anyone needs a piece of keel equipment for instance. I'm sure many of you knew this already. He did also say he plans to retire to somewhere near Fort William in the next year or so, I don't know how many spares he'll take with him. I've promised to call in when passing in 2023!

Bruce's eBay name is bigdaddybruce63; I couldn't get it to come up on a search so here is the pulpit ad which has his details:
