I'm thinking of going the same route, but was wondering if the self leveling mast mounts are better? -Josh

Thanks guys. I'll give those leads a shot. -Josh

Still looking...let me know. Thanks, Josh

Healhustler, Thanks for all the input! I hope to find something soon. -Josh

Looks great!

gwkiwi, It was a stretch, but didn't find anything. Maybe you have his number lying around? Really appreciate it :thumb: Thanks! Josh

PM sent.

The size is somewhat negociable. I want to utilize the space as best as I can. They aren't open Monday, so I'll try again Tuesday. Hope the one you saw will work :thumb: and is still available. -Josh

Thanks guys for all the info! I called Marine Connections and Fiberglass Concepts and hope to hear back from them by Monday. I wish Socal had places like this! -Josh

This is my boat currently in the final stages. If I can find a good used take off, that would be best. A new one is PRICEY :eek:. Either way, I want to compare and see what's available. Thanks guys, Josh

In the hunt for a new/used flybridge with hardtop (if available) to ADD to my pilothouse trawler. Needs to be around a 9ft x 9ft dimension. Let me know what you have and we'll figure out the details. Thanks, Josh 714-658-0002 Something like this:

Great post Kevin. Very true and valuable meaning. -Josh

Marty, Since buying the boat, I have made it a mission to doing things right the first time. I try to research, ask many questions, and price out everything in detail before coming to a decision. The hardest thing is parting out a piece of the boat that has held up for 34 years. I just got a...

Out of the 8 portlights, 2 of them leak, and 3 have cracked glass. Either way, they are coming out. As far as the other stuff (ie. cleats, deck plates, and some hinges), all has been removed already. Thanks for the input guys :) -Josh

RT: Newfound Metals looks good. Seems to be a high quality product. Thanks for the info! Northern Spy: Selling them may be an option if I do go SS. -Josh

Hey Everyone, In the end stages of my boat rehab and want some advice/opinions. I have a 1979 Pilothouse Trawler that has been brought up to a custom/current day look. All exterior teak is gone, decks are fiberglass non-skid, and interior is modernized. Now, I know some like the patina look on...

What is the price difference between the DC or Hydraulic? What did the yard quote you? Curious since I'll be doing the same thing in a few months. -Josh

N4712, Thanks for the pics!

No worries, just want to see your set-up. Thanks, Josh

healhustler, Do you have a picture of your davit crane? Thanks, josh

Do you have the mold already? I'd be interested since I'm doing the same rehab to my boat and located in Shoreline Marina. Josh BTW...great job posting your progress. It's looking good!

N4712, That davit crane is ridiculous...very nice. I'm locating the crane at the starboard corner of the overhang, similar to yours, but my deck thickness is only 2 inches and is only held up by 1.5 inch stainless tube brace. My fear is that the extension of the crane (7-9 ft) and the weight of...

Thanks Larry! Called Nick and got some great ideas/advice. Still keeping my eye open for a used one in good operating shape, but his davit crane definitely fits the bill. It's amazing how much stress a purchase/upgrade can do to a boater. I lose sleep over decisions like this :lol: Thanks again...

N4712, That was the biggest marine davit crane I've ever seen! At 25ft long...I'd have no issues clearing my swim platform :lol: Thanks, Josh BTW...your boat is absolutely superb. Great looking,clean,....a man's vessel. Ok, I'm done drooling....:o

Great points, I called multiple sources to get me the best info and recommendations for my crane location. Most said that with a standpipe and a reinforced mounting plate, I should be fine. My dingy only weighs 200lbs loaded so the weight being distributed is not at the crane's max limit. The...
