Name this fairlead

[royab]

Hello All

I need to find a replacement for a fairlead on my vintage woodie:

Fairlead

Phosphor bronze rod bent over hardwood eye.

Trouble is, I can’t find any reference to what it’s called other than generic ‘bullseye fairlead’ so of course, Google is serving me up nothing relevant – a lot of polished brass. Adding ‘vintage’ or ‘classic’ to the search string yields sunglasses.

Any pointers much appreciated

Thanks

Hi royab – apologies for this post becoming lost in the “system”. I hope your boat is looking finer than ever.

If this is what you are after, couldn’t you get the bits and make them? Just a thought….

Hi Royab, not quite what you need, but an idea anyway.
