Best price and service - if he has one - would be John, the host of the site. Contact SOS.
Or else keep looking at Ebay - put in a 'save' for Seagull . .

A Minter 40+ is not one missing the transom bracket!
As someone said in another post something about "the parts costing more than the whole".
If transom brackets sell for £20.00 on ebay then that's what they're worth.
Just one thumbscrew & pad washer from British Seagull will cost you £15.00 + postage.
Perhaps your best course of action would be to buy a complete 40+ mk2 from ebay & keep keep the rest for spares, it's not like they're too expensive this time of the year.
Perhaps that's why your minter is such a minter, it couldn't do any work without a bracket.

Make it idiot proof and someone will make a better idiot.

Have to agree. Actually, twenty quid plus postage would be good result. They frequently made more over the last year..........Charles uk wrote:

Would be good if you tell us where you are, or, even better, update your profile with a location.............!
Since you talk in £/GBP/quids we must assume you are UK based?
