More TOW = the addition of a f2 lightning world cup race, good nick for its age but several things requiring some attention.
Firstly one side of the centreboard gasket is missing, is there any chance of getting a new one (set) or more likely can someone recomend a plastic that would be suitable to make a one piece gasket to replace it.I was thinking something like icecream container plastic, would need to be 1020mm x 90mm and 1 to 2mm thick depending on rigiditity.

Secondly the centre board cassette has one large ?rubber? washer each side,there is very little left (top of picture).I thought they may have been some sort of friction washer but the ratchet operation is still quite firm and they may not have any real bearing on its operation at all.
