MPH-38. Can you answer this question?
Does anyone know the height - bottom of keel to top of pilot house - for a 38PH Sloop? I need to arrange shipping, and they're asking me for this. Thanks!

M39 Hull Thickness? ... Sizing thru-hull fittings

Hi all,I'm getting ready to replace thru-hulls (which are all original) on my Mariner 39 with TruDesign fittings. I've heard the hull is 2"+, which would be too thick for the skin fittings I bought. Snooping around the forums, it sounds like it's under the engine where it's that thick, but thinner elsewhere?Can anyone confirm hull thickness?While I'm at it, any advice on replacing the thru-hulls specific to the M39 is welcome. Other than I need to grind the original ones out of the fiberglass..…

Filler used inside of bilge?

Has anyone ever dropped their keel on an M36?  I'm wondering how thick the glass layer is on the bottom of the keel stub, and how thick the layer of filler material is that they added in the interior bilge compartments?

M28 rigging tension

This is the first time I've tried tuning the rigging on my M-28.  The boatyard that previously took care of it did it "by feel".   I am not experienced enough to know what the right "feel" is. Does anyone have recommendations for the appropriate tension?  I am using a Loos guage. Thanks!

Mast Height M36?

I dont have any original documents for my M36.  I want to order a Mast Mate ladder but need to know the mast height from boom to top.  Hard to find info on the web specific to the Canning Mariners.  My best guess so far is 45' from deck to top of mast.  Anyone can confirm?

Engine Guard - M39


Engine Guard - M39

One improvement that I am really happy with is the addition of an engine guard. When working on anything on the far side of the engine, this allows laying on top of the engine without risk of damaging the small fuel pipes. It is made of 1/8" steel. It attaches with 3 screws for easy removal to work on the engine, but remains in place for normal operations. …

Complete Engine Rewiring - M39


Complete Engine Rewiring - M39

Over the last winter, I completely rewired my engine. This was prompted by finding some scorched wires at the control panel, and later learning that the original design had a couple significant and even dangerous design flaws. This is just a summary, but if anyone wants details, feel free to ask.

Key points:…

Spreaders


Hello everyone. After reading the last comment on the improved down wind performance of the fwd swept spreaders, I have by mistake deleted the "spreader" post... maybe the website master can put it back? I'm sorry!!!
