Paul,
I've just got my Navik installed on Ploughboy Dreamer
and I'll post more pictures on my website to give a better idea of all the fittings....
BUT in installing it all together, with help from the manual there appears to be one peice missing ! (I purchased the item 12 months ago secondhand and while we put it up in the sellers garage the missing part would not have been apparant in his garage out of the wind !)
The unit below which has the windvane and counter weight on and which which sits on the vertical SS pipe seen in the picture above should sit on a SS pipe which fits inside the vertical tube ?
If you have one of these my question to help fabricate the missing peice is:
How long is the inner SS tube ? the full length of the Vertical tube ?
Is the tube a loose fit of fairly light ? assume not too light as it it does not need to rotate
And finally do you please, please, please have the dimensions ?
Thanks in advance and I guess this will only make sense if you have a Navik !
Cheers
Andrew
