Another broken mast foot... But this time I found a gentleman who is able to repair broken hinges of L17 by inserts of chromium steel. Works perfectly and definitely is more stable than the original cast aluminium hingeholes.
My mastfoot broke on Thursday and was ready again on Friday!
But be prepared for a hefty price (!!)

Re: Mast foot repair and reconstruction
Hi there, we had our mast come down on our leisure 23sl whilst on the hard.
The mast foot broke into 4 pieces. We took it to a brilliant fabrications in Milford Haven, Wayne worked his magic and rebuilt it. The mast was raised and we sailed more than ever last year with absolutely no problems.
