Hi Jonathan,
For the pump handle I assume you have a circular bar spigot from the pump. Measure this diameter accurately and get a local engineering company to turn a piece of stainless with an outside taper so that one end is drilled to give a close fit for the pump spigot and the other is a spigot which is a tight fit in your tubular handle. The latter can be tack welded or drilled and tapped to fix the spigot end of stainless block with a machine screw.

Nautibuoy has a 5(?) sheave organiser each side of the mast on a moulding leading back to two sets of jamming cleats each side of the coach roof. If you take your organiser apart you may find that one of the manufacturers like Barton can supply an equivalent sheave . Close outer diameter to original is OK and if the 'axle' diameter is too small they can probably be drilled out. Depth could be same or less. If this not successful that local engineering outfit could turn you up some using an original as a pattern.
On my Jammers,one type is stainless lever operated - I think by Main Marine - probably long gone! The other type is a plastic cam in a stainless 'u' trough which looks pretty pathetic but actually works quite well. I dread that one day the cam will shatter and make me fit complete new jammers(at the price they are I hope to keep current ones as long as possible). I would welcome any info on spares / replacements for the existing ones.
Cheers
Paul
