A “B80 gypsy” is the Simpson-Lawrence Seatiger 555 part number, designed for 5/16" BBB, or 8mm chain.

Good luck if Simpson Lawrence Yacht parts and spares doesn’t have one.

Thanks for the clarification. I will also need one of those. I'm wondering if a new one is really expensive and GWB is looking for a used one. Lets see...
GWB...George W. Bush? Oh oh...He boat a boat!
