Pearson/Bristol D-Section Goosenecks
Original D-Section Goosenecks used by Pearson and Bristol Yachts were of the Roller Reefing variety. A spring-loaded Aluminum shaft fit into a recess in the boom casting, reefing was accomplished by pulling aft on the boom and rolling it and the sail at the same time. Most parts are listed here, as well as substitutes for all configurations, but the original Boom Gooseneck casting to fit the 3/4" Roller Reefing Gooseneck Shaft is no longer available.
