From our UK Correspondent, Nigel Cameron, sources for bamboo spars:
- Jacobs, Young & Westbury Ltd.
- Bridge Road
- Haywards Heath
- Sussex
"They have a price list with bamboo suitable for sizable dinghy spars. I had a list somewhere & have seen their name mentioned in a couple of boating articles. Also
- The Woodbridge Boatstore
- Lime Kiln Quay
- Woodbridge
- Suffolk IP12 1BD
include bamboo for spars in their extensive trad. boating catalogue, with brief comments on its use."
