Trampoline boltrope replacement question

Post by Steve B. »

My DF1000 trampoline boltropes need replacement.

I am referring to the hull and forward aka attachments, not the outer and aft one with the wire.

I have already replaced the s.s. wire with synthetic line from Precourt Systems and am happy with how it is working.

Does anyone know of a source in the USA for this boltrope with its attached webbing?

Thanks,

Steve B.

Steve;
I just happened to send mine out yesterday to Sunrise to get repaired for just that same issue. It seems the tramp material is in great shape, just the bolt rope and seam where it attached to the main hull was trashed.
Talk to Richard at Sunrise. http://www.multihullnets.com/
The price for new tramps was about $1880.00 - ouch! He didn't quote me a firm price yet on the repair, but from what I described to him of what needed to be done, the repair was going to be in the neighborhood of $250.00.

I'll update this thread when I find out more.
