For Sale: Coligo cheeky tangs.

[Patrick of M]

I have a complete Coligo rig for a 40' ketch . It uses cheeky tangs which I don't need. I'm interested in selling the Coligo cheeky tangs if anyone wants them.
If you are genuinely interested and a motivated buyer I will inventory and photograph what I have. But please no tire kickers, life's too short.

Just fyi, forum rules require a price and location or your ad might get deleted.


There is a sticky at the top of the "General Classifieds" section which lists the requirements.

Yes, well I did initially modify my post with a location, but the site double posted instead. Can't edit posts after x time so they are both up. Asvto price idk what to charge so $1 or best offer.

What size are they?

We need two Cheeky Tangs for upper running backstays - what sizes have you got and are you willing to sell just two?

[Patrick of M]

I'll measure them over the next couple of days, start documenting what I have. Most of the boat was rigged 10mm+ dyneema. By size are you morevconcerned about bolt hole or radius? Seems a little oversize shouldn't be a problem, bolt holes can be sleeved for better wear, radius the bigger the better, maybe angle offset is the key measurement? I'm definitely selling singles etc, as I am raising funds for stemballs (my mast)

Our upper running backstays will be 8 or 9mm, so we are looking for 5-9mm Cheeky Tang with 1/2” bolt. We could upsize to 11mm and use the 11-13mm Cheeky Tang with 3/4” bolt. We aren’t interested in any of the Cheeky Tang dimensions, just their size. Thank you!

Ok I may be confused about cheeky tangs. This picture is the stuff I have (I have much more).
The new cheeky tangs are offset/slanted thimbles, these use the stainless offset to set up angles etc.
The large triangles have 1)2" holes, the 2 hole obes half a 1/2" hole and an 11/16" hole. Aprox 4" center to center. Both are offset and present an angle.
I have pics but the site is buggy loading pics. Pm an email address and I'll send them there

Not necessary, seems to have worked

The pictures are of Colligo Terminators, not Cheeky Tangs. We don’t need Terminators. Thank you.

On this rig the "Terminators" also function as connectors to the offset stainless tangs, functioning th blame as cheeky tangs but not the later, more elegant solution. If editing an old post was possible I would modify the title
