Yacht Specialties Pedestal Chain

[Matey]

While pulling my pedestal for repairs I lost half the master link from my chain to the bilge abis. In measuring the chain & sprocket .. the chain link measures 5/8"and between the sprocket teeth looks like 3/4".
Edson talks about 5/8" #50 chain for their pedestals. Being a chain idiot .. I'm thinking it might be American Standard 5/8" #50 chain that I need a link for ?$#!&*

They get allot of money for their chain & wire kits. My chain looks good. I'm hoping to have my wire made up with new take up eyes, connect to my chain and be good.

Advise, comment, confirmation or a good joke welcomed

Greg,
Not had to deal with it personally, but have heard that you might talk to your local motorcycle shop.
Good luck!

Brian,

I was thinking the same and was successful. I found one at the Polaris ATV/Snowmobile Dealer. It's a #50 American Standard Chain.


Thanks for the reply
Regards, Greg
