Re: Fwd: Anchor Platform / bow sprit
Author:
OK, this is the last drawing of the anchor platform, I hope it can be of use.
I have seen these with an added support from below. I think it needs it.

That drawing matches the design of my sprit/platform. Much stronger if
a channel is welded onto the bottom edge of the long tubes and across
the bottom of the cross bar. Make the channel out of 4″ wide 3/16″
thick plate (need to find someone with a large hydraulic press to bend
that).Pete

Pat and all,
Attached are Pictures of Aurora’s anchor platform, as it presently exists,
and a tool that was given to me by the previous owner. The purpose of the
tool, I was told, is to permit a bent platform to be straightened without
distorting the location of the bolt flanges. In fact I used it to straighten
mine (which was bent down somewhat when I purchased the boat) before I had a
local welder fabricate the diagonal brace shown in photo.
I am not near my boat so I cannot confirm that my platform is exactly the
same as Ken shows in his drawings but from memory I am quite sure that it
is. It was original to the boat and the length of the tool at the center of
the flanges is about 29 inches – which correlates well with the 32 inch
dimension in the drawing. I would be pleased to loan it to Paul or anyone
else who might want to have a platform fabricated or straightened. I don’t
know what the shipping cost would be but for estimation purposes, the tool
weighs about 10 pounds.
