Ok, thanks for the info. I will keep an eye on it. Hopefully it will not start leaking until I pull the boat out in a few years. I just had the bottom painted and the scupper valve replaced so the next scheduled haul out is two years away, I hope.

Yes, it is 7/16 inch.. Only found out because I had guessed at the wrong size and bought both sides. The hardware store next to the boat yard in Mex had several sizes of packing. I was able to match the packing I took out to 7/16. Easy job really,…

Scupper hoses

Hi, George Sparr here.  After 40 years it's time to replace the scupper through hull fittings and valves.  I think the previous owner was upset with the boat yard that he had to replace the 2" hoses.  He thought that they should be crossed from the port side to the starboard valve.  What I have know is straight hoses from the scupper to the valve.  Any advice would be appreciated.  Also, thinking of replacing the two other through hull fittings while I have it out.  just don't know how long…

M36

Was the hull number on the original main sail under the m-36 logo. Hull out tomorrow. Time to get ready for varnish season. Also have new set of glow pugs to install. Not at all happy with the way the universal 5432 starts. Not reliable. Runs great after and if you can start it.

M36 11 Keel Bolts?

was reading a pamphlet where its mentioned the M36 has 11 keel bolts.  i count 10 in mine.  three in aft bilge, four in central bilge, two at mast step and a single bolt in small bilge between port head and starboard sink.  is there an 11th hidden or was that a typo?  there is a long span between the mast step bolts and the forward most bolt but there is no access to that area without removing the floor.

M36 hulls cored or solid?

was reading Sparkle Plenty's blog and he said he encountered balsa core when grinding the hull to check for moisture.  i was under the impression the hulls were solid fiberglass.  did they use coring in strategic places on the hull?

Keel Stub Construction

Hi everyone,New MYOG membern here.  Im proud owner of Mariner 36 hull #45 Dulcinea.  I have a potentially serious structural issue with my keel stub and need to try and get as much info as i can so i can decide what repairs i might need to make and how im going to approach them.  my boat has a thin separation line at the keel/hull joint which isn't surprising given its age and probable neglect before i purchased her.  to remedy this, at first i figured i'd haul out, drop the keel, check the…
