[alberg30] Need help with spreaders

[Christopher Sousa]

David,

If you contact Metal Mast in Putnam, Ct they can fabricate spreaders to
meet your needs. The rake should be toward the stern which is very
slight. Within a day I can provide the exact measurements for the wooden
spreaders that came with the Alberg, I have the original spreaders
tucked away that were used as templates when the new replacements were
fabricated from white oak.
