Sta-Lok News

[Brion Toss]

Hello all,
In case you hadn't heard, Sta-Lok has finally, after years of promising to, started producing a stemball version of their terminals. Up until now, if the upper ends of your shrouds were socketed into the spreaders or masthead with stemballs, you either had to use swages up there, or go with Norseman's extraordinarily expensive stemballs, or convert to external tangs, so you could use eye fitting. I still prefer and recommend the latter, but it is nice to have options. For more on this, take a look at pricing, look at Sailing Services: http://shopping.sailingservices.com/Rigging/Stemballs_3.
Fair leads,
Brion Toss
