Pedestal mounted linkage issue

[gpshephe]

Had a prob 2 mos ago with a failure of the shift linkage. The mount inisde the pedestal for the shift linkage broke. Jury rigged it to get back to my slip. I'm looking for a more permanent fix and would 1st like to find the part if possible. The Pedestal was built by Marriman and they went out of business in 1989. They sold their inventory to Doc Freemans in Seattle, but they went out of business in the early 2000's. So now I'm on the prowl trying to track down if there are any remaining somewhere.

The part number is Y321 - 0110. It is the piece on the pedestal right below the compass binnacle.

If any of the long time boaters have any ideas. Well anyone for that matter. Would be appreciated.

I want to point people to Joes Racing (JOES Racing Products) . This is as much a machine shop as anything else and they do make a replacement control head for the old plastic Yacht Specialties pedestal. I just picked up one a week ago ready on their shelf to ship. Oh - they are machined from aluminum and mine cost $250 at this time.
