I have a Four Winds II with a failed generator/motor. The unit was bought a couple of years ago with the idea of getting a new generator/motor or rebuilding this one, but new ones were not readily available and the
rebuild was pretty costly due to damage to the shaft when the previous owner disassembled it.
Now my
boat is
for sale, so the Four Winds II also is. I will sell the various
parts listed as shown below along with my asking
price, plus freight (the
parts are located in Traverse City, MI.).
If you want more detailed information or pictures for any of the parts, just let me know. All the parts, except for the
generator and its shaft & bracket, appear to be in good working order, but I have not tested any of them, so they are priced accordingly.
1. Blades (pair), $75
2. Vane with arms, $50
3. Overspeed Brake Assembly, $75
4. Meter/Control Panel $50,
5.
Generator Mounting Bracket with slip ring - probably usable, but mounting surface damaged due to improper shaft
removal, $10
6. Pole, 8 1/2', with slip ring, $25
7. Armature Shaft with Attached Blade Mounting Arms - some damage to the hub, $10
