ideas and help please ......i wish to get a new gooseneck for alloy mast 55mm to boom

Ronstan has RF2527 @ $67.32 + freight $17 0r much better RF2524 @ $152.00 + freight

both are sorta ok but pricy and better than what i have been using with limited L/R movement.

I would like a sliding circle that slips over the mast giving up and down movement and spears

the boom, allowing L/R , tensioned down to work with a downhaul chord.

I recon someone must know of so a photo may be of interest and a price please

Joe I dont have a goose neck at all on my three landyachts and never felt the need either
The boom just attaches to the tack and the clew of the sail
cant get cheaper than that and works fine
I still have the downhaul attached to the front of the boom
Not unusual a very common setup here

If you have to have a gooseneck, just use a plastic rowlock. it does everything a fancy yacht one does and you get 2 in the bag for about $5.
downhaul,vang would be fine
