How to contact Mike Quill?

I am a new member just getting my feet wet. I keep seeing that Mike Quill is a wonderful source for original hardware. I am looking for some vents that protrude at the upper stripe on a Nonsuch 22. Is there at set procedures for getting in touch with Mike?

Thank You!

Does anyone have a photo of the Tee ball fitting that goes on the top of
the mast tie-down cables and/of know where I can purchase them? My boat is
missing them.
 
Thanks,

Hi Mike,
 
You can purchase it from Mike Quill. I had to retrofit mine last year and Mike was able to supply the mast tie-down kit along with excellent instructions.

Mike: Also check the four set bolts that keep the base positioned in the shoe. They thread in and have lock nuts to keep them in place. It’s not uncommon to find them missing or not properly installed.

I became the owner and caretaker ln 10/24. Have not seen her since due to medical reasons. She is berthed in Noank CT at Maxwells Boatyard. In the water and ready to sail. I have owned a Hunter sailboat that I kept behind my condo in Freeport NY. That was 40 years ago. I never dreamed I would own a nonsuch. I will not give up on it.

Well said Thor. Nonsuches and Wylie cats give PHRF committees nightmares
since they don't sail by the usual rules of Bermudian sloops. My gaff rig
has added to their problems. Mascouche with the standard wishbone rig with
a Botts sail and folding three blade prop had a rating of 249 on Lake
Ontario. After I converted to a smaller gaff sail, the PHRF committee
could not decide on how to rate me for over a year and in the end came up
with a 100 which is very flattering but likely unachievable although when
conditions are right she will give any yacht a run for her money on a
windward leg. The photo taken from Mascouche shows the fleet on the
windward of a Club TGIF. We were second around the leeward buoy and had
established a substantial lead by the end of the windward leg.
 
As far as bloopers and spinnakers are concerned, California PFRF committees
ruled that Nonsuches and Wylie cats have to compete in the spinnaker
classes regardless of their intention to fly a spinnaker or blooper or
not. The Nonsuch rig is more efficient than a standard spinnaker since one
can increase the pressure differential between the windward and leeward
side of the sail while on the run. The choker needs to be eased and the
mainsheet long enough to allow the boom to go past 90 degrees.
