Subject: Windvane replacement

Hello Valerie

I have had a VXA2 unit on my UK built Vancouver 32 for the last 20 years & it’s a wonderful friend.

I sail single-handed & after 20,000 nm have absolute faith in the wee beastie.

Last summer I was safely anchored for the night in Inishboffin Island (W. Ireland) and in the morning, after a gale, the Windvane Frame was gone!! Are you able to give me a price for a replacement Windvane Frame and Cover. (I live in the UK near Falmouth.)

I enclose a pic of the Hydrovane doing its duty off the west of Ireland.

Many thanks for your help.

Best wishes

Bill
