Norway | Suddenly today the leeward daggerboard broke in half while we were out in the waves. I am trying to contact John Pierce. Is he still active with his boats?

Essex, UK | The Stealth F16 uses a standard 49er daggerboard. Any 49er supplier could sell you one.
John is still around and making to order. He can be contacted via email at stealthmarine(at)tiscali.co.uk

| Speaking of building. Is vacuum bagging small parts (dagger board size) worth the effort? I'm doing something similar and it seems good vacuum pumps are expensive.

| The Stealth F16 uses a standard 49er daggerboard. Any 49er supplier could sell you one. I think the later Stealths has a specific board and not the 49ER which the early boats had. Length was the same but very different in chord width. I have a spare wider 49er style board which is sitting in the back of the garage which I could sell for not a lot of money, where are you based ? | | | Re: stealth marine F16 needs a new daggerboard!
