hook [R21]: A piece of hardware used on a model yacht for the jib swivel and backstay attachment to the backstay bracket.
There is only one supplier we are aware of that has hooks available that are of reasonable size and strong enough to do the job. Hooks are hard to make that have the strength necessary to do their job. It is best to purchase hooks for your model yacht. If you have metal working experience you may have the skill to make strong enough hooks.
