      I’ve been meeting with some yards to go over my big list of projects and one of them (Seaview in Seattle, WA) said that the Navtec turnbuckles in my rigging (original I assume) had been recalled. I’m not sure if there’s any truth in that and was curious if any of you had more information.

      Thanks,

      Patrick,
      If Navtec has a recall it should be one their website and/or their tech support number (they are still in business – right?).  Navtec did have a recall on their turnbuckles in the 70s to replace the bottle screw. 
      If the turnbuckles are original and you're going through a major refit, might as well put them on the list as well.

      Love spending other people's money.

      I’m definitely going to replace mine. Just wanted to see if it was common knowledge amongst y’all or if someone else might also be at risk.
