I believe that all of this is available from the Springfield Fan Centerboard Company at https://www.woodencanoe.org/builders-suppliers/springfield-fan-centerboard-company if you are patient. Another option is https://www.ebay.com/itm/284654373401 if you are in a hurry. You can always buy an old canoe with a sail rig like https://www.woodencanoe.org/classif...g-canoe-with-leeboards,-sail-supports,-rudder for example. Good luck,

Didn't think those were off the shelf items. Looks like I need to find a set of those and then make a mold and maybe cast them myself.
Be sure to straighten out any bends first if you do. These are also available from one other source that I didn't mention because theirs were cast from a bent set which makes them very difficult to straighten now. Good luck,
