When the going gets tough - Ampair.

 



 

Welcome to the Bargain Box.

You could find absolutely anything here.

And you can see more of what we are about on Facebook.

We have some sails and bits and pieces.

This staysail came off a 40' Catamaran. It is not badged by I assume it is from Scooter Sails at Yamba as were the others.

Dimensions:
Luff: 8350 mm
Foot: 3820 mm
Leech: 6580 mm
About 8 oz dacron. With sail bag.
*Loose measured so may be a bit more stretched out.

This genoa came came off a 40' Hitch Hiker catamaran and is virtually new. Made of (about) 8oz dacron by Scooter sails at Yamba.

Made by Scooter sails at Yamba of (about) 8oz Dacron.
Comes with a sail bag, other than that there's not a
lot I can say about this sail, it is new, has UV protection
and a luff tape to suit a Profurl roller furler.

Dimensions:
Luff: 13200 mm
Foot: 6700 mm
Leech: 10950 mm
I measured this sail so it should be will be within cooee.
*It was loose measured so may well be a bit more when stretched out. Strangely enough, this sail is only double stitched.
Looks like it has a nice flat cut.

 

Mainsail:

Top of the range, triple stitched, laminated cruise cloth with
full battens made by Scooter Sails at Yamba. I have checked this sail out and it is in good condition. There is some staining that sort of looks to me like oil of some description but it isn't at all greasy. I really don't know what it is but, while it doesn't look that flash, it doesn't appear to be of any detriment to the actual sail. The only damage I can find is a very small hole a few feet down from the head. And when I say small, I mean small, a bit of stick on sail tape will fix it up.
You can't see much from this pic but this is a pretty roachy main and is set up to be used with the Ronstan batten cars on the mast. (Although this can easily be changed to any system). This sail has all the normal stuff, leach tensioners etc. It has three reef
points with the third reef being a deep one. All up, not a bad sail – and will fit my new boat if no-one wants it.

Okay, next, a couple of Profurl Furlers

I'm pretty sure this is a C430 because the next one down won't take the 12 mm forestay this was fitted on. So we have a Profurl furler with twin luff groove. It came off the same rig as the genoa listed above so if you took the two it is sure to fit. Looks a little bit ratty but, more than anything else, this is by virtue of the fact that the green paint has faded in the sun. (Furlers do tend to get that way) However, it is complete and in good condition. Length is 13720 mm.



I'm thinking this is a C420 furler because the stay it
came off is 10 mm and anything below a 420 just wouldn't fit.
Was used with for the staysail listed above left.
Apart from the sun dulling this unit is complete and all in
good condition.
Length is 8740 mm.ngth 5860.

Just $100.00 for this Main or $180.00 mainsail and Gennie - see below.

I have no idea what this sail is worth but must be worth $100.00, lets face it the sail bag would cost more than that if you were to buy it new.

You can pick up here or I can ship to you - anywhere.

If either of these sails are of any use to you, make an offer, I will put it to the owner.
Will sell all together or happy to separate.

Tabernacle mast base

An odd ball items here.

Just in case you hadn't noticed, this is a heavy duty tabernacle mast base that came off a mast foot 240 X 160 mm.
It looks quite, what's the word? "Agricultural", and that's because it is, but, with 10 mm aluminium construction walls, double at the 1" SS pin, it ain't gunna break in a hurry.
It will add about 330 mm to the mast length and weighs in at about 10 kg. Even the scrap metal value makes it worth a few bob.
If you have a need for something like this, have a talk to me because I cannot see me having a use for it at all and it's not a good thing to keep tripping over.

Rotating mast base


This has a bit more class if you need a roating mast base.
This is an All Yacht Spars fabricated rotating mast base which will fit a variety of masts. Originally made for a 40' catamaran, it was never fitted or used so is, essentially, brand new. Made from anodised aluminium, bronze and stainless steel.
Total length is 570mm.
This is a nice piece of equipment and I doubt you could get it made for the ask price of $300.00.
However, if you wold like it but don't think it is
worth that much, make me a sensible offer adn i'll look at it.

NOTE: Pic to the right is not the boat for sale but a finished one in the water.


I know nothing whatsoever about this boat. I haven't seen it, I don't know where it is other than that it is in the brisbane area, I don't know what condition it is in or how much is being asked. I do know that it has been under construction for some time and the owner has lost interest. All else is a secret for you to find out - apparently.

Air Breeze Marine

Air Breeze Marine
12 volt

Sold - Watch this space.

We may have a used 24 volt unit available soon.
Let us kow if you are interested in that unit.

Special.

One only.

  • Storm proof Ampair 100.
  • 24 volt* Turbine only.
  • *Can be supplied as 12 volt unit
  • Land or Marine use.
  • This turbine has been hiding on a storeroom shelf with the A300 above. Again, this turbine has never been set up or used so is technically second hand but is being sold with 6 months warranty. Like the A300 these Storm Proof turbines rarely have a problem so is an opportunity for someone to own one of these Storm Proof turbines at an excellent price.
  • Normally $1325.00 going out at just.
  • As new 24 volt unit $700.00 - Bargain!
  • If a regulator is required we can supply you the SM1B regulator for single battery or the SM3B regulator for a triple battery bank for just $90.00 (Retail $200.00).

  • Email: martypwt@bigpond.com

Special.

One only.

  • Aquair 100 Tow generator.
  • 12 volt Turbine only.
  • This Aquair 100 tow generator has been hiding on the same shelf as the A300 and A100 above so has been in good company. Like it's cousins the Aquair 100 has been made to last. A good choice of power supply for the serious offshore cruiser. What I like about a tow generator in general is that it gives you a consistent power supply when you need it most - at sea - to run auto pilot, nav lights, radar etc. Like its cousins, these turbines are extremely robust.
