Hi Rod,

My setup is a little different, but may be more easily serviced.

I've done this a couple of times last year and had to follow up to get the
dimensions exactly right. We did it in the water - diver worked below. We
sent down a light gauge messenger line and used it to pull in the new
pendant. Easy. Mine is made with dyneema with an eye splice at each end.
Lower shackle is 5/16 and upper is smaller (3/16" I think). Can't remember
the price but it was under $100. Maybe $70. Lasts a coupe of years.

Centerboard pendant
Dyneema12'6"x5/16" LOA (not incl D shackle)
Ocean 3000XG 5/16" 9900 lbs.; std D shackle 5/16", L:29mm, W:17mm (Island

Hope this helps. Call if you need more info.
