my long awaited copy of the ec12 manual arrived at last in NZ,info was superb,i can only describe as shock at seening some of the fittings used.I know its a while since the books were first published
and maybe at the time quality fittngs were hard to get or find,and i can only guess that things have improved since then.Does the name
Bantock not ring a bell with any-one.No i do not work for Bantock
neither am i on some $ commision. Pehaps you have in the USA an american Bantock producing quality fitings?I hope so.Please inlighting me ??other wise the view Fred Flinstone takes up ec12
sailing will be firmly fixed.

Bob,
You might check out the site of http://www.gbmy.com/index.html for some of the stuff Bantock make(s) is on his site. This site has stuff for all classes and is an interesting browse.

I am sorry you were delayed in getting the manuals. I was copied on the whole process. We have have it within the class and this will not happen again.

Bob - have you seen the stuff Tony O brings in to NZ?? I have bought a bit of it - Cap Maquette - and cannot fault quality at reasonble price. Same sort of stuff as Bantock - ie blocks, masts etc
