    jim, did you resolve this? i thinksleeving will work only if the inner sleeve fits exactly inside the old boom and has a long overlap and the outer pices are pop riveted into place. if the sleeve is not long and tight, the pices will work apart. And, the repair willstill not be race legal. Any sleeving is illegal. Better to get a full boom, new or used. i just  replaced my boom tube and it was fairly easy transferring all fittings because you use “drive rivets” that you just hammer into the holes you’ve carefully drilled.  the factory could probably tell you who fromyour area is coming and maybe they can bring it back. alternately my old boom has a small bend at the vang and is yours free if you want. i am in downingtown PA and will be travelling to bedford/johnstown Pa in a fews weeks if that helps, don’tknow where you are…randy

    we are Schurr interested. we are picking up an older used scot in MI in a couple weeks. the boat includes newer racing sails, so it would Schurr be nice to have an older set so we could be Schurr not to wreck the newer ones while getting acquainted with the Scot.
    how to go about this? we are in the Philly PA area, zip 19335.
