Trampolines

Postby ChrisR » May 24th, 2021, 4:57 pm

Hi everyone, just a word of warning. Look after your Trampoline.
I have a problem with my Trampoline & Track so I have been looking at my options.
The old style trampolines which around 75% of the boats in the Club are is now £455.
So.
Regular Tightening
Regular Servicing

When you think about it the price of a small bolt rope trampoline is nearly half the price of an old boat.

A cheap way to get new style tracks could be to find some free/cheap dart 18 hulls and cut the.tracks down to size.

I have already found the Track, £20 a side + postage, :D instead of Windsport Price :evil: . Only one problem it is not anodised. Am fitting a set on to my boat, my theory is that they will outlast me. At that price you can replace it every 5 years and it will still be cheaper.
Also talking to Paul Newel the other day, he will gladly replace the 6mm Bolt rope with 8mm.
