US$50 to fix a basic design flaw and extend the life of an AU$1,000 important piece of gear is a really good idea.

Many thank for doing this, Gary, you've saved me the trouble of doing it myself. How do I get one?

Cheers,
Kinora

WOW!!
I can't believe it. Both Kionora and Muttonbird, thanks for your response.
I will head down to the post office tomorrow and get a quote on postage to Oz.
If it is too dear, there is another option.
My mate is coming to Japan in August to do a sail with me.
He can take the units back to Oz and mail them locally.
That could be a cheaper option.
I would like to communicate openly here except for addresses and other personal details.
Thank you for your interest. Will get back to you tomorrow.

Gary

I'd like to buy one also, Gary.

Gary,
I have messaged you for a second time.
I hope it is getting through the system.
