Hi, Mates,
With Mike Z., Mid-West and Worth Marines all closing, the dry up of Pekabe, and other parts didn't take long. I started searching the 'net, and after many hours,came up with a source.

Below, is the link to his posting on the Hobby King RC enthusiasts web site. He's got both Pekabe and Groupner (which I'm not familiar with)parts. His prices are very reasonable, I paid $15 ea. for packs of 2 #512(Deck), and #515(single) blocks. Shipping, from Clearwater FL. to NC, was only $4 for five packs(10 blocks).

Better get them while you can.
Have a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays,

I guess this is evolution at work. This might make building a new boat a bit of a challenge.
I believe you can still find some Pekebe items on ebay but there is still a source of nice items in France call Cap Maquettes.

I have purchased some items from them and they are nice. The language translation is a bit difficult but they sure try to help. I wonder how possible it would be to become a dealer of their products in the U.S.

Maybe this forum can add a file were people can post items they are searching for and ones people are willing to part with.
