Fishing out a broken battern

Post by Keith »

Hello all
Has anyone developed a cunning plan for fishing out the last 2 inches of a broken battern lodged in the plastic battern guide furthest away from the battern pocket opening :(

All suggestions gratefully received

Hi Keith , depending on the style of batten protector, if it can be unscrewed temporarily that can help.
The Windsport support team would start by using possibly a second batten with a strip of double sided tape on the last few cm to make contact with the side of the broken batten.
Windsport technical support.
