I recieved this email yesterday. I think it's more likely to get a response on here than the wanted section. Please contact Ben directly if you can help,

Hi Chris
 
I'm a Curator at Merseyside Maritime Museum, part of National Museums Liverpool.  We have in our boat collection a Merlin Rocket called Raparre, sail number 376 made in 1953.  We are planning to display Raparee in a forthcoming exhibition in April.  Would it be possible to place the following advert in the 'wanted' section of your website:
 
rig and sails wanted for museum display of 1953 Merlin Rocket
Merseyside Maritime Museum are trying to source a 1950's era wooded rig and sails to be displayed with a 1953 Merlin Rocket called Raparre (sail no. 376).  The rig needs to consist of of wooden mast and wooden boom with fittings, it could be a broken mast that we could repair. Any old sails, even damaged ones could be used.
