The site recently experienced prolonged relatively high winds for 3-4 days.  After that, he went out and noticed that the tail is stuck in the side-furling position.

Does anyone have any idea where I could order parts for this turbine?  Is there a suitable replacement turbine we should be looking at?  At last check, the turbine was putting out good power and passed all electrical checks.
