The cradle is no longer for sale, the new owner of Kefi has changed his mind.

Re: Cradle for Contessa 26

no doubt... with steel prices and the amount of time running a chop saw, not to mention the welding.  hardly be able to build one (square...) for 500 bucks.

Re: Cradle for Contessa 26

Well, he is a metal worker by trade. The big issue for him is that the boat is now in Quebec City, and the cradle remains in Bronte Harbour. It's a fair hike to come down here and get it back home for him. But he's decided that'll be easier than making one, especially since the cradle apparently meets his marina's strict requirements for cradle construction.

Re: Cradle for Contessa 26

Does anyone have the dimensions for a basic steel cradle?  I would like to see if I can have one built close to home rather than purchasing one.
