Pelican Hook

[crazycarl]

Somewhere between Pensacola and home I lost the knurled nut that sits inside the lifeline pelican hook. I searched the web for a replacement but trying find a left hand thread stainless steel knurled nut seems impossible. Before I call Hutchins, as I'm sure if they stock it I'll have to purchase the entire hook, does anyone know where I could locate one? I searched the usual places: hardware stores, marine stores, garage sales, McMaster Carr, Grainger, online marine stores.

Apparently, I have become your used boat hardware headquarters! I saved all the hardware when I replaced my lifelines. PM your mailing address and I'll send you one.

Thanks Mark. If you're ever in Oriental, I'll buy you lunch

FYI,
Replacement knurled nuts are available from C.S.Johnson Marine. As are the complete gate hooks.
