Finding Parts for Vintage Bic Dufour Sailboards (Early 1980s)
Question
I am looking for someone who still sells either parts or parts that will fit the Bic Dufour Sailboard . We are missing one of the connectors for the boom . Have been taping it but really need a permanent fix.
Thanks Mark
Answer
Hey Mark,
I don't know of any place that sells old Bic parts. The only suggestion I have is ebay or your local craigslist. Search windsurf, windsurfer, and windsurfing separately to get all listings.
The only other possibility is for you to take a picture of the broken part and attach it to a follow up question. If I can see what is broken, I may be able to determine if there are aftermarket parts that will work. It's possible it could be repaired or you may just have to replace the boom.
So, send a pic and I'll see what I can do.
Hope this helps.
Keep on sailing,
