Looking to purchase an original Zodiac or Bombard flag holder

Looking to find a new or used Zodiac item no. Z2194 which is the small plastic flag/pennant holder that Zodiac included when purchasing a new boat years ago. I had one of these as a young boater and would love to find another for my new to me Zodiac MK II GR. Could include the Zodiac flag or just the holder on its own. I did find some for sale in the UK, but the seller did not offer international shipping (I am on the East Coast USA). Let me know if you’ve got one or can help facilitate locating a source. Thanks!

Chas Newens can get them - but only available via pre-order. Pretty sure they ship to US. Link here: https://shop.chastheboat.co.uk/pages/contact-us

Few variables on their site - you will want to check with them first before ordering.

Z2191 (Pennant Mast Base for Zodiac Pennant Flag) £45.52
Z2201 (Insert Pennant Mast) - £17.43
Z2189 (Insert Nut for use with Z2194) - £8.73

Invariably the plastic pennant mast on the older GT models (on bow) and GR models (on rear of sponson) was broken off with use, never to be seen again. Been covered before.

If you can't source the pennant - you can probably get one made up. Plenty places state-side do this sort of thing.

Elcoucho can you see this UK Ebay link? They have the part number you request.

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/193423142492

Pacermarine are a decent UK company and if it is worth it to you at the UK pounds price plus shipping to USA then send me a PM.

Thanks,
I sent an inquiry to them despite the fact that it was listed as “not in stock”. Doesn’t look hopeful through them.

Yes, I’ll most likely sew and print a reasonable facsimile of the original Zodiac pennant myself…and chances are I’ll just make my own flag post as well since no one seems willing to ship these small items internationally (including a UK based eBay seller I reached out to)

Yes…in fact that is the specific eBay seller I already contacted. The simply replied that they would not ship to me in the US. I’ll message you as well, thanks

Was able to find a mast and flag in the UK on EBay thanks to you guys here on the forum. The Mk II GR is coming along nicely. Just installed some launching wheels and about to install the new keel (purchased from Defender here in the states). Few little loose ends to tidy up, but it’s looking good. My research on outboards brought me around to the Tohatsu 30 HP 4 stroke electric start model. Should be picking it up within a week or so. Boat is already registered and will soon be out on the Chesapeake Bay!
