Spinner for 11AC

Post by lewislech »

I am looking for a spinner for my 11AC N85848. When the ferry pilot brought it to me here in Texas (last month) it was cracked and had to be removed. I have a 65HP with a metal prop and the McDowell starter.
Thanks,
Lewis

I would get in touch with Charles (SeaHeli) on this forum.

Not sure that buying a used one would be worth the money and Charles products are better than the factory made.

Charles Finch did my spinner for my 1946 11ac. He made the template from my original that I sent him. He does AWESOME WORK!!! I highly recomend him. Very professional. He made it of stronger and a little thicker material than the original, and he made it custom cut out for the McCauley metal prop that I have too. Perfect fit with new stainless screws and nylon washers included. I would attach pictures but I forgot how.
