Just discovered my gas spring has broken, boat is a B32 2003 length of external casing is 115mm.
Anybody know which Selden version I have?

Hey Moodymike, unsure of the size that you have but you can get a replacement one to the same size here www.fjedre.dk. Im sure that there will be somewhere  in the UK that will have them also.
Some places you can only reach by sea,

Thanks for the reply. Apparently it is a Selden 10 Rod kicker, obtained a stainless kicker from https://www.sgs-engineering.com/gas-struts/stainless/adjustable/14mm-rod/gssv14-250 , at a cost of £100 which is app 50% less than the Selden part, Had to adjust the pressure with an allen key as it is supplied at 2500N, the original was 1200N. All very easy with next day delivery.
