Tory Salvia commented on geoff ferrell's article Mariner 36 Ketch Kittiwake for Sale
"I know this boat well. The owner cared for her and did many updates. This cutter ketch offers many sail options from jig & jigger to genoa, staysail, and main plus a mizzen blooper."

Older video issue. Looks like we have several popular older videos that are not streaming. Looking at the embed code, they are from Youtube. I've contacted Ning tech support to see how I can make these stream.

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…

Wood Type

This is probably going to sound foolish but if you don't know you have to ask. What type of wood is used on the toe rail and cockpit trim? As long as I'm here what type is in the cabin?  We love our M36. She is fast and comfortable just a few little issues to work through.

Autopilots for Mariner 36

I am finally giving up on the Autohelm 3000 wheel autopilot that came with my boat.  It has never worked on a broad reach or below, and now it has a hard time holding course under power (the belt tends to slip when trying to turn to port, so, curiously, the unit turns to starboard instead).  I believe this was always undersized for the boat.  Talking at the boat show the Raytheon representative stated that my size boat needs a below deck unit.  He then put me in touch with one of their local…
