What is this?

[Sue Clancy]

I was cleaning out a few items from the boat with plans to sell on eBay and ran across this.  I assume it is something to feed a bolt rope or guide a line through but does anyone know what it's called?  This may not be from the Catalina 34 - could be from a Catalina 34 or from our daysailer.

Thanks,

Side shot might help, the end looks kinda like a prefeeder, but not the other.

You're messing with us right?  It's your BBQ tongs?

Looks like the feeder to a Profurl roller furler to me.

Ken I was going to say it's not a tuning fork.

Ralph was right in fact I found in for sale here.  http://www.wichardamerica.com/profurl_en/spare-parts/steel-parts/feeders/feeder-type-2.html. Looks like a jackpot if I can sell this. We did have a Profurl curler on our Catalina 25 which is long gone. Must have come from that.

Exactly.  Sue needs to find someone with a ProFurl and "dropsy,"  like me!

Just posted for sale on eBay. Hopefully some money coming my way soon.

Just thought you would be entertained by this. I just sold this for $75 plus shipping to a guy in Tahiti!

You never know what you'll find when cleaning out the boat. Thanks for your help.

Why don't you deliver it instead...
